Fashionably Late for Work

3 We've all done it. Oversleep for work and then make a mad dash to get ready. There have been studies made about this. One study stated that at least 20% of Americans are habitually late. I guess I might fall into the 19.5% category. LOL! How about you? Are you considering an upgrade to your alarm system??
No actually I get your early. I rather be 10 minutes too early then 2 minutes late for anything. Absolutely despise being late.

I try to not run late if at all possible. I hate being late. I am usually a light sleeper so a simple cell phone alarm works just fine.

Me, too. I am compulsively early.

I prefer being early to anything work, school, event etc. On time is late for me.

Only once. My habit was to put a "W" on the wall calendar on my scheduled nights to work. Once I put the "W" on Wednesday and Thursday rather than Tuesday na Thursday.I was happily enjoying my family at 6:51 pm when the phone rang. It was a college on day shift calling to find out if I was OK. She said, "I called because you are always early."I told her I was off and she corrected my. I got my copy of the schedule and panicked. I tol her I was on my way.i just put on scrub, hair in a bun, and left husband an kids.I was 20 minutes late and VERY embarrassed. Since I hadn't slept that day it was lucky I was able to stay awake and alert.

I bought a wind up alsrm clock with external bells on it and set it across the room when I first started working. My bedroom had linoleum on the floor and the house wasn't centrally heated. So when my feet touched the cold floor, and by the time I got to the alarm clock to turn it off, I was fully awake. I was late only once in my entire working career. That was prior to buying that alarm clock.
