here is what the worker is saying and looking at the tctl output you can see that the uuid matches for the namespace "`Error":"Namespace 884cbdbb-f044-410d-817c-49746ea0d361 is not found`

increased the RPC from 2400 to 3600 and it seems to be better now will continue to monitor. as described in this reference [Service rate limit exceeded - #14 by JerryHu](https://community.temporal.io/t/service-rate-limit-exceeded/6647/14)
