This will be your day

8:00 Full of enthusiasm you start the week. After a cup of coffee with your colleagues, you start the day. You determine your deliverables for this week and you block out some time for adhoc matters. You actively have 2 projects running, which gives you a lot of energy!
10:00 You dive back into your project, where you are already in the final stages of the design concept. Today you will prepare a presentation to the client showing the progress and the final design.
13:00 After a lunch break and a walk outside with your colleagues, you resume working on your project. A meeting is scheduled to turn over parts of your project to your hardware engineering colleagues. They will continue with the specifications.
15:00 You get a call from the shop floor about one of your projects. Since you are the engineer, you naturally act as a consultant and help your colleagues on the shop floor solve problems and ultimately deliver a beautiful machine!
16:30 Time is flying! It's already 4:30 p.m.! You go to finish the day and lock your laptop. With a satisfied feeling, you go back home.
