in reply to Programming Perl as a Job: 8 hours a day is too much for me

/me can't imagine a single job that ever requires you to CODE even 6+ hours straight day in day out (deadline looming yes, but not normal mundane work). The day I find this job, I believe I would quit :)

Myself, I find I spend the first 5 hours of work surfing net, talking co-workers, eating lunch. Usually follow this up with 4->6 hours programming, last 3 hours repeat of first 5 hours+coffee. Then again...when you work 86 hour weeks 52 weeks a year, you find yourself setting aside work time for personal stuff so you can have some semblance of a life :)
