Early mornings
 

I have the joy of starting work at 8am- just wondering what time every one starts- I hate 8 am - first alarm goes off at 6 and it's like raising the dead every morning!

Re: Early mornings
 

05:30 is normal wake up time back home, kids are in school just after 7am. Waking at 6am or just after whilst working in Doha is almost a holiday! Getting to work for 8am is no problem.

Officially I am on the 8.00-16.30 shift - in fact, I go in later (8.30-ish) and stay till I feel I've been screwed enough, then I go home (or, increasingly, to Bridges Bar in the Fairmont).............

Re: Early mornings
 

Have been at work by 8am for the last 16 years. These days I wake up at 6.45am and do 30 minutes on the exercise bike before shower and breakfast. Leave home by 7.45am. Back home before 5.15pm.

0830-1730

I got up today at 0735, showered and out the door by 0755, in office and pretending to work by 0825

Re: Early mornings
 

Official start time is 8am, usually in the office by around 7:45am.

Official finish isn’t until 6pm, which sucks balls.

Re: Early mornings
 

Normally get up at 545am with the wife and end up in the office by 730am. Generally try to leave the office by 430-5pm so I'm home shortly after. Most of my customers and contacts are in banking and tend to finish at the same time or before me.

Cant be assed with the people in my office who wander in around 10 pretending that they stay half way through the night. I have returned to the office after a late meeting etc around 6 and its always deserted. Lazy gits.

And possibly guilty of fraud? Being paid for hours not actually worked, but claiming they have worked?

Says the man posting on internet forums from the office.

Re: Early mornings
 

Day off today, so posting on internet forum in daytime :p

I'm up at 5:30am, in office at 6:30am, leave at 3pm. That way I miss the rush hour traffic in both directions.

Re: Early mornings
 

pfft....drone bees! :D

wake up at 9.45 am and walk to the office at 10
2 to 5 break, so walk back for gym or a nap (latter preferred)
then 5 to 9 office again and then sleep by 2-2.30...yes yes I know but there are SO many channels to surf and someones got to do it!!

:thumbsup:

Re: Early mornings
 

officially 8.30 until 6pm. usually leave between 6.30pm and 7.30pm

Re: Early mornings
 

If I'm in the office then its 8 - 6 in theory but more like 8:30 - 6:30 in reality.

If on site, leave home at 8ish and get back anywhere from 3 to 8 depending on location and what I'm doing.

Re: Early mornings
 

Bloody part-timers. Breakfast on site at 6:45, morning calisthenics at 7, working by 7:10.

What's the matter with you people?

Original Sunshine- OMG! In the office at 6.30 am? good grief!

OK so what time does everyone go to bed to get up at the crack of a sparrows fart? how many hours sleep are you all getting?
