We're not gonna die. We can't die, Bendis. You know why? Because we are so very pretty. We are just too pretty for God to let us die.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

I work 8-5, though it often ends up being closer to 8:30 to 5:30. If left to its own devices, my body would never get up before 10am, which makes getting going in the morning problematic.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

We stagger our hours at my office. My manager is usually here 7ish, I get in around 8, and the other web guy shows up 9ish. That means that my boss leaves around 3:30, I leave at 4:30, and the other web guy's here until 5:30-6:00. The upper management likes this sort of arrangement, since it means there's someone they can go to for about 11 hours out of the day.

Ann, that's a ferret.

I'm 8:00 to 4:30, which means I'm usually one of the first to get here and one of the first to go home. But it means we get a parking space at Metro.

I'm officially 9-5. It's more like 9:15 to 5-something. But this is a whacky psuedo academic place, so everyone pretty much sets their own hours. Probably 5% come in before 7 and are gone by 3. Some work 10-6. There's got to be some overlap for meetings and the like, but it is pretty flexible. More than a few put in more hours for fewer days of coming in, or telecommute extra hours.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

I'm 8am-5pm. At an old job where I was the receptionist, it was 7:30 to 4:30 unless the office manager had to leave early, and I would sometimes be there till almost 5:30.

I was riding the bus in those days and had to be out of bed at 5:30 to shower and eat and make it to the bus by 6:50 in order to open the phones at 7:30. I put my make-up and earrings on at work. My brain got to work around 10:00am.

I am supposed to work 8:30-4:30, but I usually make it to work about 8:45-8:50. But since I live about a 12 minute walk from work, I'm often still in bed at 8.

I'm officially 8-4:45, but in reality, anywhere from 7am to 9:30am arrival, depature 5pm-11pm. This week - mostly 7:30am-7pm.
