    How much time is there between the time you get up out of bed and leave the house?

    For me, I get up at 7 and the leave the house at 8. In that time I have a shower, get dressed, eat breakfast and relax with a coffee whilst watching tele. I hate rushing out the door.

    Same. Gives me a chance to get my head straight and my thoughts organised. I hate rushing or being late.

    Rush out most mornings.

    Shower the night before, and breakfast at work.

    Although 18 months at job, and only late twice.

    I wake up and leave the house 30 mins later to go to work. In that 30 mins I shower and dress. I never eat before work because my stomach tends to remain asleep for a few hours after I've woken.

    Rush out the door. I have never gotten the hang of getting out of bed when I dont absolutely have to. Even if I'm not out and go to bed at say 11pm on a Friday night I have to be shoehorned out of the bed at 11am on a Saturday.

    Alarm off at 5:50
    Shower
    Start waking kids
    Dry hair
    Dress kids
    In car for 6:50
    Drop kids to minders
    Drive to work for 8:00

    So yes it can be very rushed especially if kids are sleepy

    Thankfully I only work 3days a week. Think it would be too tough 5days a week
