Have you ever wondered what the software developers in your company or team do day to day?

Here is a short list:

- drink coffee

- respond to business requests like support, tech/it questions, "is this possible"

- write comments and update jira cards

- groom, estimate and discuss jira cards

- maintain their local development environment (where the bulk of the work gets done)

- try to replicate bugs

- plan new features out (writing out how things will change and where and how it might impact the system overall)

- write code

- push code to "Pull Requests" (a request for a change in a code base) so other developers can review the changes requested

- test the changes in testing environments

- respond to any feedback

- meetings

- deploy code to production

- monitor logs

- do pair programming and help other devs in the team

- post memes on slack

Surely you didn't believe me when I said it'd be a small list right?

:P

That covers it pretty much - devs what did i miss?
