I've been at work since quarter of 7 (6:45) this morning, which is like 2 2 1/2 hours than I normally get in.
I will prolly be doing this until election day and I want to keeeel myself.
What time do you all normally arrive at work?

I'm on flexi-time. The core hours (where you have to be in work) are
10 - 12 14 - 16
So you can come in work anytime between 8 - 10, have lunch between 12 - 14 and leave between 16 - 18.
Suffice to say, there have been many instances of me doing a four hour day!
Normally make it in at 8:55 or thereabouts.
Sometimes 9:20 if the traffic's shit (and in Aberdeen it's always shit).
I usually try to work half my lunch hour so I can get away half an hour early.

yes
;)
Try to get in for 7.45, which gives me an hour to get myself sorted and do some marking, etc. before I have to deal with the little oiks... Usually work through lunch, too, so I can leave straight after the last lesson finishes, if I'm lucky, I can be home by 4...

I arrive around 2255, I actually start at 2300. My mind arrives somewhere between midnight and 1, my good humour usually follows it quite closely.

That's below the belt!
Kershie works hard, and it's bloody common sense to go on the rob early doors!
If I'm opening the store, I get there at 6:30...if I'm closing, it's 2 in the afternoon...of course, how much work they get out of me is open for discussion...

You know that five bells in the afternoon is 2.30pm?
Thought so..
6.03 this morning, we're allowed 3 mins grace, a ruling which i try and abuse every morning.

almost there Ste.
2.30 bells
how did you get the 30 bit though.
I usuall arrive at 7.30am, which gives me 15 mins preparation before I face my Team for their start of shift meeting. 30mins for lunch then leave at 4 bells apart from friday when I leave at 11:45am for the week-end yippeee!
Try for 7:30 am, but due to baby at home, it's usually 8:00 am to 8:30am. that allows me to go home a little early and spend time with my son.
These days 7:30 because of traffic caused by the bridge collapse that happened next to my home.
I do my own hours, so it's up to be.. I used to arrive at 9.. but then I noticed I lost 1 extra hour in traffic for nothing.
My goal is life is to avoid traffic.. so usually I enjoyed doing 10-6, but now I'm going 7h30-3h30 or 8-4.. trust me, it's hard... I hate to go to bed before midnight, so it's very hard.
4:30 on a Monday morning, which fuckin' kills me! Usually back home and comatose on the sofa for 2 though :) 6:30-6:45 for the rest of the week.Leave at 4.
Mondays and Thursdays............7 a.m.
Tuesdays and Fridays.............5 a.m.
Wednesday........................3 a.m.
Can't really go to any shows on Tuesday night, unless I stay up. It sucks in the summer trying to get some sleep on that night when it's still daylight out at 9 p.m. and quite warm outside; the payoff is being done by 10 or 10:30 a.m., usually just in time to grab a pizza and beer to watch some football, either on FSC or a Champions League match on ESPN2.
It's great leaving work by 2 p.m. on Fridays as well.
Late, every day. Renowned for it. I even ask the cleaners not to lock my door on a night so the kids can get in & sat down before i come in blaming 'traffic'
