What's your schedule like?

How do you motivate yourself to work?

Is caffeine/sleep/food an issue?

Live in Hawaii, work operates on Central Time.

Wake up 4:45am, start work 5am (9am or 10am central). Make a bagel or something easy. Get drinks as needed. Get a snack before standup at 1pm central if needed. Get off at 1pm (5pm or 6pm central). Make lunch at that time. Eat dinner about 5-6pm. Head to bed at 7:30pm to 8pm.

I don't take a lunch. And if I do, I'll just work later or start earlier the next day.

I have to get on meetings at 4am sometimes when we do a deployment or have meetings with people who are more important than me. I've had to be on a 3am equivalent meeting once in the past 4 years. Small price to pay for the privilege of living in Hawaii.
