Early or late
« on: August 12, 2016, 04:33:36 am »
Are you usually early or late when you arrive at work? I am a early bird
Because it stresses me out to be late. I cannot get my day started right, so I like to
be early.

I was always early to work. At least an hour early. I was taught that from a young age.

I try to be early no matter where I go, like appointments. I think it's always better to be early than late. Sometimes being late can't be helped, like if there's an accident or something.

I try to be always on time and hate when I arrive on time for an appointment and have to wait because they have over scheduled!

I can  only think of one time i was late for work, it was because i went to the dentist arrived before my time and  was made to to wait over a hour and a half before he saw me and then left me in the chair while he took care of another  person. So i was  about  a half hour late for work as i had to go back home and change, walked into the door and the phone was ringing. one of my employees was calling to see if i was ok because i was late.  They were so used to me being early.

I'm usually a little early everywhere I go. Its because I set my clocks 5 minutes ahead of actual time.

I'm usually early when I get to work. I can fix my breakfast, log in to my computer and check email and chat with co-workers before I get into work.

I try to arrive about ten minutes early to work. I don't like to be too early because then I have to sit down and wait. I hate being late to work or any where. I get too stressed out.

When I did work, I did like to get to work early. It was so nice to get in before the phones start to ring and everyone else was in.

Early.   
I worked my first job where you'd get fired after acquiring so many late marks, so that "trained" me right for the future.  :)

Well, better early than late. I usually show up on time. If I'm early, I just hang out and get other less important things done in the meantime.
