If I see Katie Cat or Bonnie McMurray at 7:00 in the morning, I'll likely be late to that meeting.

I walk in, shoot the shite with he boss for 15 minutes or so, put on a pot of decent coffee.

Do paperwork and do the prep work for the next few days while avoiding conversation with the underlings for two hours or so.

Then, work for maybe 5-10 minutes an hour for the next 8-10 hours. Boss comes into my office to Shoot the shite for the final 30 minutes.

Stay 15-20 minutes late so we are the last ones there, usually having a drink.

Go home.

Are you leaving 3 hours earlier too? Otherwise it seems like the soys are doing it better.

My office is in a far corner around a bunch of empty offices (lots of people still working from home). The only other people here are on the other side of the office.

I love it. No distractions. No morning chit chat.

I really don't want the other people to come back. I've enjoyed my solitude these past few months.

I try to get in the office early everyday so I can enjoy peace and quite before the people who talk my head off first thing in the morning roll in.

I wake up every morning and am immediately “on”.

I rarely have coffee and have never needed it to awaken me.

So mornings at work are no different for me (or in dealing with me) than are afternoons or evenings.

I don’t drink coffee and I hate mornings... I can be grumpy especially when super bubbly people are way too cheery at 7:30 am.

But I eventually perk up

Get to the office at 7. Unless I have an early meeting, which isn't often, I spend about a half hour drinking my coffee and doing the crossword puzzle, then maybe a quick TD check, then get to work.

Enjoy my coworkers. A lot of what makes work bearable is the relationships.

I hate the phrase Good Morning.

I respond with either What's Up or Hello

I am awake by 4am to run but when I get in the office I don't want to talk at all. Let me enjoy my coffee...but NOOOO. I have one of those co-workers that has to talk and gossip at 6:30 as soon as I want in the door.

But to be fair this also described me pretty much until I leave for the day. I have no desire to be friendly with people I work with

Get here an hour before everyone to drink coffee, play a game of chess, and check TD. Great way to start the day.
