What your day looks like

You get home from the gym, you like to get there early to avoid the rush hour and it gets your energy levels up for the day. You turn on your monitor and join the hangout for your daily Standup. Call done, you hit play on your favourite playlist, tap the volume key a few times and get in the zone. The rest of the morning goes by working on that D3 component for the weekly demo tomorrow. It’s a nice fresh day so you take a brisk walk in the local park and grab your favourite sandwich from the nearby deli for lunch. After lunch you do some remote problem solving with the team and then it’s back to developing. The day done, you close down your laptop, the rest of the day is for family, friends and you.
