Viva la revolution! ;)
Jan. 27th, 2004 08:53 amI'm not a morning person, not by a long way.
As a result, though some days I need to get into work bright and early (particularly if I've got meetings I can't get out of), I tend to roll in a little bit later than other people do. Okay, quite a bit later than other people do.
However since it's rare I stop work at 5pm, and my boss knows well and good he's more than getting his money's worth out of me, it's never been a major issue. Likewise the hour lunchbreak on my contract has achieved almost mythical status - I think in 5 years I could probably count on the fingers of both hands the times I've actually *had* an hour's lunch.
Yesterday the admin staff suddenly produced a new signing-in sheet with spaces for times. This would be why I'm still sitting *here* online instead of being on my way to work already. It doesn't make me want to get to work on time, it makes me want to get to work later than usual! Not the desired effect, I'm sure.
A small act of rebellion but mine own. ;)
