How many hours do you put in daily at your day job? Do you go home and work on personal projects? How much time do you put into that? Are you married? Do you have children?

Your turn!

Eight hours a day on my job although I am on call 24 x 7 x 3 65 in the event of a crisis.

I always make time for my personal projects.

Married many years.

One brilliant son.

Did this completely as a voice rant.

Great questions. devRant should consider offering a survey form I'm the future. This way the data becomes more valuable.

6-8 hrs a day in office

Then at home, random selection of following:
2-4 at for main
1-2 for personal/side jobs
1-2 hours learning

Sometimes work from bar or coffeeshop

1 Wife, 1 toddler (1 on way)

Can't always work at home. Wife either needs me to do something and I try to play with my kid. After kid goes to bed, watch netflix with wife. If I'm not drunk or asleep, I try to get some work time in after she goes to bed. (or play xcom2)

10 hours a day average for work. Sometimes more and sometimes less.

I work on my own projects several nights a week all night and some weekends. Typically until 3-4 in the morning. I make room for family and roller derby. So they have priority.

I am married and have a 5 year old daughter.
