At the moment I'm not really serious about my working day. Still a student so I just fit whatever hours I can in and when I can be bothered. :P

**StuartL** · 07-22-2006, 05:38 AM

3.30 or 4am start - work through till around 9 or 10pm.

15 minutes or so break for a bike ride, a cup of coffee at a local cafe around 8am. Breaks for lunch and dinner and that's about it 5 days a week with a little less on weekends.

**Tran** · 07-22-2006, 05:38 AM

Well depends really on the amount of work willing to be put into it.

**Charisma** · 07-22-2006, 07:06 AM

I work in the office during the day (normal routines ), and sleep for a while after work, then go back to work after dinner til 12 midnight

**obenix** · 07-22-2006, 07:11 AM

Officially I work 9.5 hours a day. I usually put in additional 2 hours.

**sundaybrew** · 07-22-2006, 07:20 AM

To answer that I have been up 38 hours straight as of now

**Andreas Bard** · 07-22-2006, 04:13 PM

10.00 AM - Get up
10.15 to 11.00 - Read and replies to all e-mail sent during the night.
11.00 to 12.00 - Have something to eat
12.00 to 03.00 - Doing the daily work, like planning, taking calls and so on.
3.00 - 10.00 Hanging out with my girlfriend, playing basketball and just enjoying life.

That is what my typical work day looks like.

How do you manage with so little sleep?

:thumbup:

Okay, here's my typical day

7-8 AM - Wake up go to home office and check email, drink coffee, read WSJ and online news/blogs

9-10 AM - Get out of the house and head to office downtown. Check mail at P.O. and stop by coffee shop. Sometimes I'll work from the coffee shop for an hour or two and eat breakfast (they have WiFi) or I'll just head straight to the office.

10A-12P - Work at the office on various projects

12P - 1 or 1:30 P - Lunch, usually with a client or friend

2P - 6P - Work at office unless I have a meeting

6P - Go home, cook dinner and spend time with family

9:30 P - 12 A - Get online again to post in forums, blogs, etc and work more on some internal projects

**Hoang** · 07-23-2006, 02:17 AM

My working day is boring..

I wake up around 2PM, get on the computer and check my email, digg, PMs on forums, etc. Then I open up my websites and start updating with the daily content. That usually gets sorted out within an hour. After that, it's time to work on the technical stuff (coding, design elements) of certain websites and get the new features and such up and running.

All of that pretty much takes up my whole day. Of course, there's the usual movie watching and gaming in between

**Quizak** · 07-23-2006, 03:03 AM

7:30am wake up, pound 2 cups of coffee and work until lunch at 2pm. 15 min lunch.

After lunch I work till 5pm, and then head out to beach or park for a run to get away from the computer/technology.

Return, make dinner, eat and read/blog/research for another 3 hours. Then sleep.

I try to take little to no breaks in the day so I can feel guilt free for taking off at 5pm.

**imported_DaveTurnbull** · 07-23-2006, 03:24 AM
