MICROSOFT WORK LIFE BALANCE SOFTWARE
Igor Debatur is a software developer and the co-founder & CEO of Uploadcare, an end-to-end cloud platform, covering the complete media pipeline: uploading, processing, and delivery. From 3–5pm, I have a little more focused time, and this is when I tend to do development work. Then from about 1pm-3pm, it’s more of a mix of work, meetings, and school work. Lunch and another walk happens around noon. I will look at my meetings for the day and my tasks I need to get accomplished, and then my wife and I write up a schedule for our kids’ school work around that.įrom 9–12pm, it’s a mix of work, meetings, and helping my kids with school work. From 8:30–9, I do what has now become the hybrid school/work calendar for the day. But I digress.Īt about 8am, I’ll take my dog for a walk with the family. I’ve found that the success rate I have with sending emails and messages early in the morning is much higher than any other time of day. This is a relatively new approach for me, by the way. I’ll drink my morning coffee, catch up on emails, and then start trying to generate leads. So, my day usually starts at about 6:30 am.
MICROSOFT WORK LIFE BALANCE FULL
With both of my kids home from school and my wife working from home, we’ve got a full house. Thanks to COVID-19, my life each day looks a little different than it used to. Mark Palfreeman is a UI Engineer at Microsoft, currently working on developing a component library for the company’s online store and marketing websites. I always try to get outside at some point doing the day for a stroll and change of scenery, then I kick off by 4:30pm or so to bike home.
I find the day disappears rather quickly to bouncing back and forth between communication channels, meetings, emails, and coding. I usually have a handful of meetings in a day, both internally with my teams and externally with things like potential customers or advertisers. Then the rest of my day gets broken up by scheduled things. That’s often my favorite and most important part of the day as it’s deep work into something valuable. I pick something super random and fun to work on, which for me is usually something like writing, building something, improving some process, answering some hard email, or the like. My wife takes the mornings with our 2 year old daughter, we have child care during the day, and I take the evenings to split the parenting load a bit.
My wife and I share an office room to ourselves in downtown Bend, Oregon. I clean myself up, feed the dog, do some home duties, and ride by bike down to work.
