What I like
Solving proplems are great fun. Solving problems through programming is even better. Small self deciding teams with competent people is the environment to strive for.
On a personal level I love spending time with the family. Taking the kids to see a movie. Suprising the wife with restaurant visit. Watching Premier league with frinds (and a couple of pints). Or just spending an hour by my self jogging.
