4 years in consulting. I've spent the first WEEKS of a project twiddling my thumbs waiting for a laptop, just to spend more weeks waiting on access to source code, tooling, etc.

My friends on the strategy side could start and finish entire projects in that time.

Not necessarily worse, but the stereotype fits! You are, at least, soon doing tangible things.
