Which day of the week do you get your best coding work done?

Whether a matter of personal productivity or circumstance, which part of the week is best for your most personally productive work.

Please get into details of what makes you productive on those days β€” whether it is how meetings typically stack up or otherwise.

When you hate your office job and love programming it has to be Saturday. Had fun programming whole day then chill in Monday. 😌

Thursday. I usually have zero meetings and tend to WFH on Thursdays. These are my most code-filled days.

I do not like when a picture tells me what I should do. Would like to block you in order not to see that nonsense in the future!

It's Thursday for me. I block off the entire day for coding. Still end up with meetings sometimes anyway though. It's not really preference, just Thursday was the day I have the fewest recurring obligations, so I chose it.

Monday - "we (you) really need to do this by friday"
Tuesday - "we (you) really really need to do this by friday"
Wednesday - "we (you) desperately need to do this by friday"
Wednesday - Maybe they let me work
Thursday - "we're doing it by tomorrow right? How about by the end of today? Is it done?"
Friday, every 10 minutes - "are you done? are you done?" (Yes twice)

That's daunting to say the least.
