An average day:

1. Start working on feature
2. Finish feature
3. Feature doesn't work
4. Spend 7 hours refactoring and fixing imaginary bugs
5. Add the 3 characters that were missing
6. Laugh and cry, laugh and cry...

Lol, this literally happened to me the other day. I did learn about a couple of new method calls in the process however, so I don't mind so much.

That's better than an average day for me:

1. Start working on feature
2. Customer IM - they do not understand a process; must explain
3. Tries to get back to feature
4. Customer call - new group coming on board, need meeting to set them up and draw them a roadmap
5. Tries to get back to feature
6. Impromptu mtg - need to give a demo to potential new customers
7. Tries to get back to feature
8. Trouble ticket - user is stuck and world is crashing; need to help them immediately
9. Customer stuff
10. Customer stuff
......
22. Customer stuff

*end of day*
Me: "Well, I read the specifications of that feature, maybe I can actually start working on it tomorrow...."

What 3 characters? What language?

7 hours? It was a week for me last time. And it was 2 changed characters, I think. But maybe not, because the wrong result changed into other wrong results while trying to fix it.
