re: What does your average workday look like?

get to work at 9-9:30AM. work until 6-9PM.

That sounds awful.

Sit at my desk anywhere from 730-830. Check shite. 10-11 make liquor store/bourbon run. 1-3 yard work or house project. 4-530 check last emails for day., fri sit at desk 8-11/12.

6:30am wake up
Walk or run with dogs, breakfast with daughter
8:30am get to the office
12-1:30pm BJJ
6pm - dinner/bedtime routine with family
8pm - working from home office
~12-1am - bedtime

Investment banking hours suck but I make it work.

Should have said hi but I am glad she took care of you

Typical day

For me, I usually leave at 5:30 AM, stop by the office at 6:00, work on planning the day, updating expense report, printing out estimates, etc. leave the office around 7:00 spend the rest of the day in meetings at job sites, offices, shops, quarries, landfills, and mines. Lunch is usually a business lunch with a customer. Usually get home around 5-6 that evening. Spend the next hour or two doing what I call “laptop work” before about 7-8 I call it quits for the day.

Your hours are too damn long. Find another job before work related stress ends up killing you.

6:15 - 7:15 - wake up, shower, brush teeth, breakfast while wife gets the child ready

7:15 - 8:00 - Wrangle child, finish getting him ready, get him to daycare, stop for a coffee to go, get back home

8:00 - 8:45 - Walk, listen to audiobooks or podcasts. Just a lap around the neighborhood.

8:45 - 11:30 - Work

11:30 - 1:30 - Gym + lunch time

1:30 - 4:30 - work

4:30 - 7:30 - wife + child come home, play, dinner, bath+ bedtime for kid

7:30 - 8:00 - Chores

8 - 9:30 - Free time

9:30 - 10:00 - read a book

10:00 - go to sleep



Work time subject to change for meetings and such.

It's not a hard, fast schedule but it works out like this the vast majority of days.

Wake up at 6:00 am
Get to the office at 8:00 am.
Do my job until 12:00 pm
Lunch until 1:30
Do my job until 4:30
Go home and hang out with my family.

Roll over and look at phone at 6, if it has missed calls I know my day is gonna suck for the rest of it. If nothing, I pray it stays quiet until I get going around 8. After that it is just managing the freaking dragons until it is late enough no one calls anymore...until 6 the next morning. wash rinse repeat. My day involves a series of logistic nightmares requiring complete employee buy in to get it to work. I spend a lot of time praying everyone comes in to work every morning, no one quits, all trucks are running and nothing weird happens..then I spend a few minutes trying to find an extra employee cause I know something is going to shite with one of em on a daily basis

I think we may have the same job. In between things going to shite and putting out fires I post on the OT.
