Affer… answering my emails, I start crunching numbers for one of my projects. At 9am my manager arrives, and I’m a bit shocked by his outfit. I knew that Casual Friday was a big thing in the UK but I wasn’t prepared for this – when the guy that you usually see in a classic “suit and tie” shows up… in sneakers, jeans and a white t-shirt it just rocks your world. At 10am I start preparing a presentation for next Monday.
When I’m almost done, my manager reviews it and makes me change everything by… annotating with a red marker. The monthly meeting starts at 2 pm. It’s a one-hour update about…this month’s performance and objectives …for the next one.
At 3 pm we have got another meeting. At 4 pm I go back to my desk. I start reviewing a financial model I developed one month ago and I send over some guidelines.
I’m usually off… at 5 PM. I leave with the manager and we chat in… the elevator about our plans for the weekend.
