Some days like today I do prep work before we open so I have to get here at 6am. That means I have to wake up around 5am. That never feels good. When do most people here have to arrive at work? I know some people in the town that I work commute to nyc so they have to leave their home at 5am or earlier. I think they mostly work in banks or wallstreet so I guess its worth it for the money they are making.

I wake before 5 and write for an hour before I head downtown for work. This is the dairy or the farm of the modern age.

Currently - get up at 5:15, have some breakfast, waste time on here and other sites, take a shower. Get to work at 7:00 a.m.

The nice thing is, I am done at 3:30. Plenty of time to get to my classes from 5:30 - 9:30 p.m. on Monday and Wednesday nights.

wake up about 8, watch a little tv, kill some time on here. Leave home right on 9 and get in about 9.15.

If I leave home about 8.30, I get stuck in traffic, get to the office at like 9.05 frustrated and in a bad mood...if I leave at 9 i sail in behind the rush hour and get in feeling a lot better about the world.

Woke up, got out of bed
dragged a comb across my head
Found my way downstairs and drank a cup
and looking up, I noticed I was late
Found my coat and grabbed my hat
Made the bus in seconds flat
Found my way upstairs and had a smoke
Somebody spoke and I went into a dream

Wake up at 6:43. Out of shower and dressing by ~7:20. On Metro by 8:10 (good day). In the office by ~8:38 (give or take 5mins on a good day).

However, today I woke up at 6:43. Drifted off (damned cold meds!) and rose from bed at 7:07. Showered and broke the shower handle and had to fix it before dental and eye care (eye care = insertion of contacts, Nancys). Fully dressed by 7:54. Metro by 8:30. In office by 9:07.

PS - I didn't realise I was so good at keeping the time. Doesn't help with being prompt though.

between 9:30 and 11; unless there are things in the morning to do early. It happens often enough that I don't come in at a regular time at all.

I get to school at about 7:00 for a 7:17 start time.

If I am working at the airport normally on weekdays I will arrive there at about 3:00-3:30, in the summertime I work mornings one day a week and get in at about 4:30. I also work late nights once in a while and I get in for that at about 10:00.
