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.

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.

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'

I'm a lazy c___, and I spend too long on here typing bollocks in the early hours.

I tend to arrive for work between 9.30am and 11.

My normal work hours are 7am to 4pm with an hour for lunch. I normally get in about 5 or 10 minutes before 7, it all matters on the traffic and if I hit the lights just right.
