How many hours a day do you work?7-8 hours, standard working day. I check the mail and answer around the clock, but I do not consider this work.
Current mobile device:iPhone 6 main and iPhone 5s. I tried different Android, but I could not get used to them even as a second phone for tests and demonstrations.
Current computer:Lenovo Think Pad Carbon X1 at work and MacBook Pro at home. Although at home I almost stopped using a computer, I had enough of a telephone.
Without any applications, programs, utilities you can not live?Google Mail and Calendar, Excel, Power Point - these are basic programs for me, I can do without the rest.

What kind of to-do manager do you use?Google Calendar to schedule appointments. The rest is in my head.
What do you listen when you work?I do not listen to anything, since most of my work is communication and meetings.
What are you reading now?I reread "The Master and Margarita". I love to re-read books, as over time, perception changes.
