An ideal work day for me would start with a clear list of topics to tackle or goals to achieve by the end of the day, the end of the week, or even the end of the month if we're looking at long-term goals, but still being allowed the freedom to get everything done on my own time with my own skills. Not to say that I would not work with the business, of course, and within their time constraints, but sometimes doing A and then C and then B works out better for myself and for the company. I'm aware that frequent contact and occasional oversight are a must when doing administrative work, but I think I would really shine the most by being given the reins and allowed to make my own routines for the job so that my success means our success.
