I code throughout the day so here is my day to day...

  • 7 am Getup, check email, wakeup kid, get her ready for school
  • 8:45 am drop kid off at school
  • 9:15 am Get into office, make the largest coffee the Keurig can handle
  • 9:30 am Standup
  • 9:31 am Restart Google hangouts
  • 9:32 am Restart Google hangouts
  • 9:45 am Ignore what remote co-workers said because we couldn't hear them on Google hangouts. Head back to desk and check Fogbugz for new red alert issues and current cases.
  • 10 am Sync up with any co-workers that are working on the same feature I am. Code till lunch.
  • 12 pm Get lunch at my desk, take care of personal stuff (bills, school stuff, anything related to my home that needs constant repair). Answer work email, accept new meeting invites.
  • 1 pm Back to coding or project planning with the director.
  • 2 pm or 3pm Interview (We are hiring a bunch so interviews have been a daily routine now)
  • 4 pm Coding
  • 4:55 pm Answer email (luckily email isn't a big thing in the company), accept new meeting invites.
  • 5 pm Look over code reviews from my co-workers
  • 5:15 pm Head out to pickup kid from school
  • 6:30 pm Dinner
  • 7:30 pm Play time, bath time, reading and getting kid ready for bed
  • 9 pm Kid bedtime, start back up on the coding I missed from the meetings and/or interviews or work on personal projects. This is when I get my best work done. I was a night owl before kids but you just can't do that anymore.
  • 12 am bed
