[Oh Haha]

I'm usually in the office by 6am and I shoot to be home by5pm for supper with the family.My office is 6 miles from home so I can work right up until it's time to go. I don't really take a break, so to speak although I do eat something around noon. I spend a lot of time in the car seeing clients and accounts, solving employee problems, planning projects, etc.
We have end of the day items that need to be finalised and each fiscal period we have reports and inventory to do which I have to supervise. My boss is 60 miles away so we communicate by Blackberry ALOT. As well, any client emergency must be dealt with quickly and that could mean a sudden drive to a city up to 80 miles away to problem solve on site.

Yes, I find time to get dogfood, drop mail off, and (OMG )surf Pelican. Some of our accounts are retail stores so I can see a client and pick up an item if needed.

All in all, I would say I work an average of probably 10-11 hours a day but that doesn't take into consideration that I am constantly running over things in my mind. I like to work 2 weeks ahead so that I minimise surprizes. I'm also a clean desk freak. I strive to finish each day without anything left undone barring long term projects.

All that said, I really do love my job and the challenges each day brings. Truly, no 2 days are alike.


EDIT: As the "boss", I am on call 24/7.
