And yes these answers matter. 😬

If we're happy with non-godly mythological figures, definitely Sisyphus though.

Sisyphus

ooh. that's good. I was thinking Atlas, cuz he carries the world, but Sisyphus is a better metaphor. Might offend my QA members though 😂

One well-known tech company has a rollout tool named Sisyphus.
