Good morning and welcome to the first Friday of 2013!

Easy question this morning: What time do you have to be at work?

We're supposed to be here by 8:30 to leave at 4:30, but we can pretty much come in when we want to as long as we get our eight hours in. I have to be here at 8:00 to leave at 4:00, but have gotten into the habit of coming in a little after 7:00 or so. That way, I get about an hour or so of quiet time before the guys come cruising in so that I can hang out here for awhile or talk to one of my GFs who also comes in fairly early. I leave right around 4:00.

Classes start at 8:15, but I'm usually there by 7:30. I have a 60-minute commute and wouldn't get there in time for class if I took a later train.

I get paid for getting the job done, and since I work from home nobody cares how many hours I put in or when. It helps me to keep a schedule, though, so I usually work M-F starting at about 9:00 a.m. and work for 1-5 hours, depending on the day. I have to watch the time because if I start to really get into it, I'll forget and finally emerge starving at 4:00 p.m. realizing all I've eaten all day is a cup of coffee.

I don't work, but my morning schedule revolves around Aaron. He doesn't have to be there at a specific time, but aims for 9. Sometimes he has an earlier meeting. His commute is over an hour, but he can work from home somedays.

Depends on which jobs I have!! My full time job is 9:15 am to 5:45pm. The 15 mins off is to accommodate my PT job

My PT job is usually 5 am till 9 am 2-3 times a week and weekends is all over the place

I would prefer a regular 8-5 job, but for now it brings in some money, gets me experience, and gets me back into the swing of working. I'm just glad it's M-F!!! Having my weekends free means more to me than having to work til 7:30pm.
