Usually set my alarm for 8:20. Head off for work. Start around 9:15-10:00. Work until 17:00. Leave. Workout till 19:30, maybe 20:00. Head home, prepare something to eat. Read, Game, Work, do nothing. Go to bed anywhere from 10:30-1:00. Repeat.<p>Sometimes I get stressed and need to meditate. I use headspace and calm.<p>I&#x27;m usually tanked by the weekend and sleep super long and don&#x27;t do a whole lot because I am so tired.<p>Repeat. x 52.

Working from home, starting around 9:00 (some days might be fishing the local river before that) at 11:00 will exercise, lunch and nap to about 13:30, more work until 16:30. For vacation this summer going to Europe with the family for 1 months... All this is the reason I cannot retire (or change jobs)

Wake up at 9am, go to sleep at 3am or 4 am.<p>Work from 10:50 to 2am then move around the city.<p>Work only if I feel like working, otherwise read articles, chit chat, networking and some promotion&#x2F;marketing.<p>Can&#x27;t complain.

I work rotating shift work, totalling 25 days working per 35 calendar days, done as 3 7-day weeks and a 4-day week with weekends of varying lengths interspersed. I average 56-60 hours per calendar week, which works out to be approx 7x11hr in a 7 day work week.<p>On weekends I work out, cook, do laundry, and spend time with my wife if we&#x27;re not on opposite sleep schedules.

I work 35 hours a week. Going on vacation for two weeks, will not be working, because it&#x27;s a vacation. Good for me, good for my employer: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;codewithoutrules.com&#x2F;2016&#x2F;08&#x2F;18&#x2F;productive-programmer&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;codewithoutrules.com&#x2F;2016&#x2F;08&#x2F;18&#x2F;productive-programme...</a>
