In Belgium working for a startup which I just gave my notice to so I can start my own business: 06:00 Alarm goes off and get up 06:15 Leave for work, listen to podcasts or music depending on mood 07:00 arrive at work, check up on email and monitoring tools 07:30 pick a task from Jira and start coding 11:30 daily scrum standup to see what my colleagues are doing and how we can help out each other 12:00 lunch, usually I buy something from the local supermarket and we eat in the office kitchen 12:45 resume work, mostly coding and avoiding meetings 15:30 start commute home, podcasts or music depending on mood 16:15 do freelance work or work on one of my own projects 18:00 pick up my daughter from daycare, have dinner and play with her until she goes to bed 20:15 more freelance/own project work or watch TV shows with my wife 23:00 sleep The last few weeks I tried moving those 2 hours of freelance work from late in the afternoon to right after I wake up (and move my day job 2 hours later), and this seems to massively improve the quality of the work I get done for my own company while not impacting my day job code quality that much. I suspect this is because otherwise the long commute home is draining a lot of energy.
