  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,594 ✭✭✭Maddison


    Meh, I work shifts so today I start at 7.30am & finish at 3pm, tomorrow I start at 3pm & finish at 11pm. Anyone have a 9-5 that they want to swap with me??:D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,831 ✭✭✭genericguy


    whenever i feel like it :D if I'm busy I'll come in and set things up at around half seven/ eight, if not I'll usually come in at 10.30/11 and head to the coffee shop. I FOOKIN' LOVE SCIENCE!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,160 ✭✭✭✭banshee_bones


    Anytime between 12 mid day and 8pm at night.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,949 ✭✭✭✭IvyTheTerrible


    Around 9 but I have flexitime. I try to be in earlier most days.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,095 ✭✭✭Wurly


    None of the choices apply to me.

    My boss, like myself is a slacker.

    He usually gets in for around 10.30. I only report to him so once I get in a few mins before him, i'm grand.

    We are supposed to start at 9.

    Lucky me, eh?!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,333 ✭✭✭✭itsallaboutheL


    soon hopefully...


  • Posts: 24,714 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    At what ever time I want within reason. I usually try to get in for 9:30 but I have ducked in as late as 12 especially if beer was involved. I would usually work on a bit in the evenings though if I come late in the morning.

    Anytime between 7 and 9 Mon - Fri. When the weather is like this, I get in as early as I can and leave as soon as I can. Ill be stretched out in St Annes by 3pm today :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 154 ✭✭Soul Cake Duck


    Technically I should be in at nine....but I have yet to make it in on time. I tried once and was in at half eight...fook that!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 473 ✭✭Lothaar


    I start at 9am but, since we're badly understaffed, usually don't finish until at least 7pm and usually work through lunch so that i don't have to stay even later. Even with that, we can't get everything done quickly enough.

    My hours are all over the place and are never regular.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 27,252 ✭✭✭✭stovelid


    The poll options are about as useful as a fart in a spacesuit.

    I can work 8-4, 9-5, 10-6 or any 8 hours in between.

    9 - 5. But finish at 4 on Fridays... That hour makes all the difference!

    Can't understand people having to start early or stay late to get their work done... it will be there tomorrow. If you can't get it done during your normal hours, you're in the wrong job.

    I often bring work home with me, every day adds up eventually to another year of fees - saves money and stress long term

    9 -5
    Off Fridays..

    Your joking right?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,605 ✭✭✭Fizman


    9.30am - 6pm. Every day.

    Its grand in that I don't have to get up till 8.30 every morning, but getting home at 6.30 or later every evening is annoying at times.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,175 ✭✭✭Red_Marauder


    It's seasonal and depends what calls I have.

    Usually I'm drinking coffee en route somewhere at 8.30am. Summers are quiet in my line of work though, so lately I'm often not out the door til maybe 10am.

    For the past few weeks I've been able to finish up in the early evening, 3pm onwards.

    Wish there was a bit more work out there but I know come next Spring again it will be up at 6am and supper around 11pm:eek:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,515 ✭✭✭✭admiralofthefleet


    depends. at the weekends i can be in at 7:30 but during the week i go in around 8:00/8:15
