What time do you get up for work?

[Mister Sin]

I recently took a job at a restaurant that serves breakfast...I have to be up at 2:45am and at work by 4am. I’ve been doing it over a month now and I still am not used to it. It sucks ass.

I miss working 8am-6pm. Lol

 

[RhodyRams]

I get up at 5 on the days I run...5:45 on days I don't

Work 8-4:30,
on the beach for happy hour with the wife at 5

Dinner
Hot tub
Sleep
Repeat

For the last 5 years till about a month ago i woke up at 3:00am to be at work by 4:00am. Luckily a month ago was given an option to start at 5 so now i get up at 4:00. It makes a huge difference. Was always tired and never got used to waking up at 3:00am. I hope it changes for you @Juggs and you get used to it somehow.

I get up at 5:30, work by 8:30/9:00.

I usually enjoy a morning coffee, reading, etc. for about 1.5hrs before work each day.

4:15AM- Morning coffee, shower, and pack my supplies. I arrive 6:15 at the hospital and clock in at 6:45 for a 12 hour shift. I'm a nurse. ( I love 12 hour shifts)

When I get home...I nap! lol

I also work at a restaurant, we do brunch so I get a bit of a later start. I have to be there at 6:30, I'm up an hour before. I like to wake up, eat, coffee, etc. It takes some adjusting, I'm usually asleep by 10:30, naps help. Honestly the only issue that I've encountered is it throws off my "schedule", I don't enjoy taking dumps at work.

4:30 -5:00

depends on how many times I hit the snooze button

at work at 6:00 , off at 2:30 ish

4:30 most days. Then I leave at 5 and commute for an hour, work 10 hours straight, commute an hour 15 minutes back, start schoolwork around 8:30 and do that until about 11:30.

@RhodyRams I envy you so much.

I've been doing that for a year or so. I'm will not used to it. I'd say Circadian rhythms are hard to change, but I didn't have any terrible moving to different time zones. It's only getting up earlier in whatever timecode that bothers me.

Don't really sleep much so it doesn't really matter. Cuz I am up anyway.

 

[Angry Ram]

5:15 am

Brush and breakfast

40 minute power sleep

Leave at 7 am, drive 1 - 1.5 hours. Leave work around 4 pm; drive 1 - 3 hours.

Check email once at 5:30 pm, and again at 6 pm. Then its me time.

After years of waking up early in the am I wake up most days on my own between 5 and 6 am.
The worst work schedule I’ve ever had was a split shift....actually two different jobs.
1 am - 6 am then 10:15 am - 7:15 pm. Six days a week with a midnight to 7 am on the seventh day.
With young kids and sports practice etc it wasn’t so much when I woke up but when I actually slept.
Did that crap for almost 4 years.

6:15 AM at work by 7:00, commute is just over 3 miles each way. I used to get up at 2:00 AM to be to work by 3:00 with a 24 mile drive each way.

 

[RamFan503]

Up around 7:30. Have coffee with the wifey, then hang around usually reading some knuckleheads' remarks on this awesome Rams site I know of, then off for my 7 minute drive to work to be there at 9.

About right meow.

When ever my eyes open in the morning or afternoon. After my morning coffee (fresh ground beans of course) and a bagel I take care of my potted garden on my balcony. That probably takes a whole exhausting hour. Retirement is tough.

All kidding aside I used to work 12 to 14 hour days on work days (3 days a week). My business had me driving 35-45K miles per year and that went on for over 30 years. The 4th day was an 6-8 hr day in the office doing all the crap paperwork running your own business generates. I generally was out the door no later than 4:30 or 5 am on the long days.

What I like about this thread; I thought I was an outlier waking up so early.

I am surprised how many of us are up before 6am.

 

[Raptorman]

I used to get up at O'crack of sparrow.

But that was in the military.

Nowadays I get up about 7:30. Bed by 1 AM.
