Geez, this is gonna bore the hell out of people:
4:50am, alarm goes off.
Hit snooze at least twice, and eventually get up at 5:10am.
Share breakfast (toast) with the dogs. Means I gotta make 50% more ;p
5:45: Ride to work
7:15ish: Ride to work, lock up bike, shower, change etc.
By 7:30-7:35 I'm basically at my desk.
On average I'll generally field at least one MTBA related call somewhere in the morning every second day, sometimes from staff, sometimes from people wanting to sign up, sometimes from Parks, sometimes from other organisers. Somewhere between 10 and 11 a project manager will come bug me wanting a status update. They'll ask me how long something's going to take and I'll tell them the same thing every time: You're asking us to build something we've never built before, and estimate how long we think it will take, not withstanding all the unexpected problems will undoubtedly encounter along the way.
Somewhere between here I might get some code written or debugged.
Hm, 12:00, lunchtime! My choices at the moment are basically Subway, Subway, Subway, or junk food, because well... last time I went to the cafe across the road, the woman serving had her thumb in some guys food she was dishing up. The time before that I went out of my way to hand her money in the hand she didn't have a glove on, but ignored that and then just went straight to serving the next customer. Yeah it might be cheaper to bring lunch, but I don't have time for that.
12:45ish I'm generally back in the office, and almost noone else is around til almost 1:45.
Try get as much work done as I can in between getting interrupted. There's a good chance once of the teams upstairs will want something done that's 'urgent', and I'll usually bounce it back at least two or three times because they haven't included information, or haven't got permission from a manager requesting access to a system, because you know, I'm not an idiot who just gives out access to systems just because you said so.
Somewhere around 3:50 to 4pm I'll get my shit together and leave, by the time I'm changed and on the bike it's generally about 4:15. On an average day with 20km/h headwinds it'll usually be 6pm by the time I'm home.
By the time I've showered, made dinner, fed the dogs it's getting on 7pm. That leaves two hours to pissfart around reading reddit, working on some electronics or code, or watching whatever TV show was aired during the day. Bed at 9 not because I'm tired, but because I'm gonna struggle getting out of bed again at 4:50am.
On Thursdays it's similar cept I'll get up a bit later, drive to work, and then head to Westgate at 4 to run Dirt Crits, so get home at about 8:30pm.
Yeeeeaaaah. I basically have two hours a day to get stuff done.
