Exactly. In Hackers and Painters [1] pg suggests "saving up" software bugs, because "it's the one time that hacking is as straightforward as people think it is". I think this transfers pretty well to things like tech support in relation to running a startup, in that menial tasks are quickly rewarding and keep you in the "zone".
