On site for 6:15 am, walk the site for a couple hours, positioning subs where manpower needs to be concentrated, and handing out approved changes/RFI's to whoever needs them, back in the trailer for ~11 am. Write whatever RFI's needed for the problems discovered on my "morning walk" (if there were any). Usually have some bs meeting with an underperforming sub or a vendor before lunch.
After lunch, walk the site for a couple hours again, noticing what has been/hasn't been done compared to what I asked for that particular day. Most subs go home by 3pm, so that's when I usually go back to the trailer.
Spend 3pm-5/6pm studying the schedule and production tracking to figure out what/who needs to be pushed that week. Also use this time to update daily reports and project schedules.
As a superintendent I'm an adult babysitter, fact checker and problem solver.
Never go to our actual home office if I can help it.
Eta: I'm in commercial, with a GC fwiw. Building a middle school right now.
There's some more involved bullshite that goes on with complicated change orders, owners meetings, sit downs with subs, my project staff, etc. That's boring shite though.

Low breaks. Don't forget those. Every PM/Super loves those.
