Daily routines of an engineer

Hi, Cleo! As with other professions, the routine of a computer engineer may vary a lot depending on the industry she's working on, whether she's doing research or product development, and so forth.  As an example, I'll share the routine from one of my past jobs. Every morning I'd go to the company I worked for, which had about 20 engineers working on different projects. I had a desk and a docking station for my work laptop in an office shared with another engineer. The docking station was used to connect my laptop to the company's wired network, a keyboard, and two larger monitors. In most days, I'd be working on a program to simulate the transmission of data across a network. I'd write the code and test to see if it was working as intended, then use the program to simulate having a message transmitted from one point of the network to another. I'd analyze the results to verify the performance and reliability of the network that was being simulated. I'd write reports to document the results of my simulation tests, so my colleagues could use these results to improve the quality of the network. From time to time, I'd meet with other engineers in the company to discuss other projects I'd be helping them with.
