9-5
8-8
What's your typical day look like?
Currently in my roll im locking in at 8 and get out around 6-7 but then find myself back at the desk once the kids are asleep :(
Lambda
Clock in and Clock out
13
Since WFH i'd say like 9-11:30 1:30-5
very nice! i need to think about taking lunch break consistently
Same! I live by myself and this time schedule allows me to do some work, work on my side hustle and also have time for a workout/ connect with friends and get 8 hours of sleep at night.
Yea it's great WFH. I honestly feel way more upbeat and productive when I'm making calls if I'm not killing myself and enjoying other things in between work than if I'm grinding 8 hours a day. Tone is so important on the phone and if you sound burnt out good luck scheduling meetings
Ebs and Flows for me... some days 9-4 some days 8-7...
life of a saleman/woman
8:30-5. On the dot. Everyday.
any particular reason y?
8:30-5.
Start at 8:30 and end at 4:30. Sometimes I start a little earlier and leave a little later, but I try and stick to that for a good work life balance. I don't usually take a full lunch break.
no such thing as a lunch break in sales i feel but good on you for having that discipline to at least take it!
@Lambda Just curious as this feels a bit excessive and unsustainable long term. I certainly have pulled days like that when needed to get deliverables done or when business gets extra busy but that's not the norm.
Do have that much business/deals that requires that many hours daily or are you being given more responsibilities and nothing else is taken off the plate ect?

i 100% agree on the sustainability piece, part of it is that im new in my roll and just changed roles and companies from outside sales to WFH sales after 10 years with the same company.
I want to make a big impact as "quick" as possible and feel like im playing catchup constantly. Currently working to see if any of my work is outsourceable as my income has doubled because of the move which i posted about earlier but we will see. Thanks for the concern!

@Lambda first of all, congrats. That's f00king huge! Doubling the take home is no small feat. I'd say if you're new and rebuilding the rep/brand at a new place it's probably more normal than not. I might be similarly making a similar move- to a new company for not double but significant increase. One of my pending thoughts is this scenario where I will undoubtably be working more then normal for a period of time. My internal justification will be it's worth the extra money. I am going in to it with the mindset that it shouldn't be longterm.
Good Luck!
Good Luck!
Thanks @ARRisLife and best of luck to you! Really fell into a great situation and part of me thinks it was just my head down mentality but there are things i learned in those 10 years never to do again, the most important being that you always gotta look out for yourself
Right in the 7-5 range. Sometimes I'm answering questions later in the day.
7-8 is get kids ready for the day for me unfortunatley but would love that extra hour! haha
normally 8-6 with some emails being reviewed after dinner
its kind of a bummer isnt it@dadfather?
Oh yea but, despite the username, i have no kids, I’m young, and can afford to put in the extra hours ya know?
Just depends on the day. Some days I sit looking at my laptop and don't even realize it's time for bed. Others I'm checked out before 5!
it happened to me yesterday, before i knew it is was 6:30 and my wife came down to tell me to stop!
8-5 all day erryyddayayy and evening catch up
there has to be a better way
im sure there is, let me know when you find it please
Depends on how late I stayed up the night before & if I was stupid enough to schedule any early morning meetings.
fair point! i try to set all meetings between 10-3
9-7!
long days!
Since WFH and my own startup, I wana say 7 am till i don't fuckin know
fair enough gl with the business
M-F consistently 6:30-5. Earlier start since I'm on the WC
WC living is tough in the 9-5 setting
whenever they respond, that is when I work.
not going out to hunt?!?
8-430
beat the traffic in and out right?!
WFH 9-12ish 1ish-5ish, lunch break can be longer for various reasons or I can stop a little early depending on the day
you eating out for lunch or brown baggin?
9 am but should be 8!
get to it! when do you finish?
Typically 8 to 8 but plenty of downtime to get shit done
thats not terrible if there is a lot of down time
I believe sales is a perception game. If you can get 9 holes in while your boss perceives you are working... then you win.
Currently working from home Mon-Wed and office 9-5 Thurs, Fri. I work more when I'm at home than in the office.
Got a new kid starting on Monday so I'll be in for 2 weeks straight training, then off for 2 weeks for some well-deserved vacation.

i agree with that, good luck with the new kid
Thanks, so far so good 👍
Early riser here. Love to get stuff done before everyone else starts. Ensures you look good and are prepared, and makes tagging out earlier much easier to do. I go about 6:30-4 or 4:30
so true, been working to get up erlier but end up hiotting the dang snooze
I usually start bet 7 and 7:30 and don't finish until around 7 or 8
thats rough im trying to work out of that myself
I want to reduce this during the summer and enjoy the nice weather
9- 6 with an hour lunch in between.
solid day
7-5 for me but reality is 7.30-5. Pre-covid with my air travel it was more like 4am till 6pm most weeks and about 4 times a month 3am till 11pm. I do and dont miss that weirdly
that sounds pretty intense, but i like flying, maybe not as a job
Gotta add lunch or break to your calendar, otherwise, you'll never take it. It certainly helped me otherwise, I was always at my desk especially WFH.
just fast until 5pm no lunch needed
Since WFH i'd say like 9-11:30 1:30-5
Libby App just lets you use your local library as well. I'm a fan of that.
