In this instalment of "a day in the life of..." we
speak to Kent Mackenzie, a Director in Deloitte's Risk Advisory
practice. There may not be such a thing as a "typical"
day in his life with the Firm, but most mornings start with some
time with the kids and a good cup of tea...
Here is a day in his life:
I start the day...
... Around 5:45. I'm usually woken up by one, or both, of my
children jumping up and down on the bed! Begrudgingly, I get up,
head down the stairs to watch some TV with the kids over a bowl of
Shreddies, and make a cup of tea for my wife and I. My family are
my number one priority, so I make a point of spending time with
them every morning before I start my day – even if it's
as simple as watching some Peppa Pig for 30 or 40 minutes or
joining them at the breakfast table. The Blackberry goes on shortly
afterwards and I have a flick through my emails. My commute is
mercifully short – if I leave my home at 7:30, I'm
usually in for 8:00.
