8-the first meeting of the day: work on anything urgent to prepare client meeting, work on anything that popped up over night/early morning from the project leader
rest of the day is client meetings, interviews, working on deliverables, crunching data etc etc
this goes on until midnight or even longer if we're in a push, every week is planned to the max and most times, just taking a break to eat is quite a rush
