I work 8:30am to 5pm with an hour lunch (supposed to be half hour but usually ends up going over and no one has ever said anything, so...).

― Sarah McLusky (coco), Wednesday, 15 January 2003 19:16 (twenty-two years ago)

― erik, Wednesday, 15 January 2003 19:23 (twenty-two years ago)

I work shifts, 8-4's, 12-8's, or Sleep-in's 4pm-till midday the following day. I only work part-time too, 25 hours a week. No computers at work, but plenty of days off.

hi donna! no pay and no food? i don't get it. even farmers need to eat!

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Wednesday, 15 January 2003 19:44 (twenty-two years ago)

i mean ESPECIALLY.

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Wednesday, 15 January 2003 19:45 (twenty-two years ago)

From when I get in, about 10-11, until when I leave. Generally 8-ish, sometimes I leave at 6-ish and them come back at 10 and work until 2-4 in the morning.

― Andrew Farrell (afarrell), Wednesday, 15 January 2003 19:51 (twenty-two years ago)

Half 9.

― jel -- (jel), Wednesday, 15 January 2003 20:03 (twenty-two years ago)

NEVER!!! Ha ha ha!!!

OK, I've been setting my alarm for 9.30 lately cause otherwise I'll sleep until 2 in the afternoon, and then I'll never get to bed.

― kate, Wednesday, 15 January 2003 20:06 (twenty-two years ago)

7 am - 4 pm.

― mike a (mike a), Wednesday, 15 January 2003 20:14 (twenty-two years ago)

I get to work at 9am, when I work, which seems to be rarely these days. Usually my answer is like kate's but without the alarm-clock setting nonsense which just destroys precious SLEEP.

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Wednesday, 15 January 2003 20:20 (twenty-two years ago)

Up at 6:10 am, at work at 7:20, home by 5 pm. This works.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 15 January 2003 20:47 (twenty-two years ago)

except to get 8 hrs sleep you have to miss Samurai Jack!!

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Wednesday, 15 January 2003 21:17 (twenty-two years ago)

various different times. i have a college working day, which starts at either 9, 1 or 10, depending on the day. work in the shop could start at any number of times: 8, half 8, 1.00, half2, half3. depends when the fuckers choose to put me on.

― weasel diesel (K1l14n), Wednesday, 15 January 2003 21:22 (twenty-two years ago)

I start work around 9 but I could waltz in here around 10:30 and not be out of place. Get home around 5:30 if I don't get groceries at the St Clair Loblaws.

― Mr Noodles (Mr Noodles), Wednesday, 15 January 2003 21:36 (twenty-two years ago)

I generally get to work around 9am, but I can be reasonably flexible about it.

8:30-10:30

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Wednesday, 15 January 2003 21:57 (twenty-two years ago)

― luna.c (luna.c), Wednesday, 15 January 2003 22:14 (twenty-two years ago)

7:25, but the bus comes at 6:45. I get home at 3 or 3:30, unless I have to tutor or something, and then there's half an hour to an hour of homework usually.

― Maria (Maria), Wednesday, 15 January 2003 22:38 (twenty-two years ago)

I get in around 4:15.

― jel -- (jel), Wednesday, 15 January 2003 22:55 (twenty-two years ago)

Whenever the hell I want.

― N. (nickdastoor), Wednesday, 15 January 2003 23:46 (twenty-two years ago)

though if I exercised this right too often I'd get fired.

― N. (nickdastoor), Wednesday, 15 January 2003 23:47 (twenty-two years ago)

it gets a little bit later each day. eventually i will be arriving at work after i've already gone home

― ron (ron), Wednesday, 15 January 2003 23:54 (twenty-two years ago)

9 am start, but i have to leave by 7:30ish to get there on time (because i am a SUBURBAN COMMUTER) i work till 5 and usually get home around 6:30ish.

― sand.y, Wednesday, 15 January 2003 23:59 (twenty-two years ago)

9ish - 6ish, but it depends on what time I leave home at & how much work I have... sometimes I leave early & slack for a few hours & then finish stuff from home.

― lyra (lyra), Thursday, 16 January 2003 04:59 (twenty-two years ago)

8:30-5 with a half hour for lunch

― boxcubed (boxcubed), Thursday, 16 January 2003 05:38 (twenty-two years ago)

― hellbaby (hellbaby), Thursday, 16 January 2003 05:51 (twenty-two years ago)

― anthony easton (anthony), Thursday, 16 January 2003 06:12 (twenty-two years ago)

This week - 7am to 3:30pm

Going to work while it's still dark = dud
Leaving work before anyone else = classic

― robster (robster), Thursday, 16 January 2003 07:31 (twenty-two years ago)

9am - 6pm. 30 mins travelling each way hence I miss ALL THE GOOD TELLY.

― Archel (Archel), Thursday, 16 January 2003 09:54 (twenty-two years ago)

Damn daysiders. Yeah, that's what we call 'em -- daysiders.

5pm - 2am

― weatheringdaleson (weatheringdaleson), Thursday, 16 January 2003 10:03 (twenty-two years ago)

Up at 6.50, out the door and walk down the cliff at 7.30, on train at 7.46, into Exeter 8.05, walk up hill/catch bus if raining, go for breakfast 8.20, into office 8.35, open office to students 9.00, leave 5.10-5.30 depending, home 40-ish minutes later. Supposed to have two 20 minute breaks and a 58 (?) minute lunch, rarely take breaks (my entire job consists of me talking about films/music/surfing the net, who needs a break?!), often take a longer lunch.

― Nick Southall (Nick Southall), Thursday, 16 January 2003 10:14 (twenty-two years ago)

my answer is similar to kate's answer.

― RJG (RJG), Thursday, 16 January 2003 10:19 (twenty-two years ago)

my working day starts at 8.30 and ends at 4.30. I take half an hour for lunch. I'm sure there's someone on ILE who can fill Archel in abt what's happening in Neighbours.

― MarkH (MarkH), Thursday, 16 January 2003 10:20 (twenty-two years ago)

10am - 5:30pm, with variable time for lunch.

― Pete (Pete), Thursday, 16 January 2003 11:01 (twenty-two years ago)

9:00 to 4:30 - I don't have a lunch break usually by my choice. It takes me 1:30 to get to work. Sometimes I get to work at home and when I do that I work from 8:30 to 5:30 with a long lunch.

I will not work more than 37.5 hours per week unless I am paid to do so!

― marianna, Thursday, 16 January 2003 11:28 (twenty-two years ago)

Supposed to be 9to5 and flexible. In reality, 9 to whatevertimeafterfiveicangetaway, and not very flexible, either. I have to ring in if I'm going to be 2 minutes late. This is because my immediate boss is a twat.

― SittingPretty (sittingpretty), Thursday, 16 January 2003 11:34 (twenty-two years ago)

I won't work 1 hour a week unless paid to do so.

― Pete (Pete), Thursday, 16 January 2003 11:55 (twenty-two years ago)

About 2:20pm, if I'm out of bed by then.

― Graham (graham), Thursday, 16 January 2003 14:32 (twenty-two years ago)
