I was supposed to be at work at 7am and had to trade with someone to get out of it. Would have been a rough day with <5 hrs of sleep otherwise. Glad to have an understanding colleague (he is also a GT alum).
All of these "I have to work at 7am" comments are irrelevant. Most people, especially office workers, don't start work before 8 am.
They may not matter to you but that doesn’t make it irrelevant. I am a morning person so I get to work at 7 even though work “doesn’t start “ until 8:30. That’s the most productive part of the day for me.
I get this. I usually am at work between 6:30 and 8:00 am too. But We are the outliers. We're talking about Tech fans being able to go to games that start at 9pm. The vast majority of fans don't have to be at work at 7am the next morning. There are always going to be those that do, but we're talking about thousands of people not 1s and 2s from this site. Besides, we're not talking about every day of the week. You guys are all totally missing the point.
Not only that but even today almost 70% of all jobs can not be done from home. We all kinda live in a white collar bubble. All these WFH stuff is ignoring the vast majority who cant.Some people have to work for a living and be in an office to do so.
Even when I work from home, like I will be doing this week, I am still online and going by 7.
I could start at 8:00, but choose start earlier so if I leave it 4:30 I don't feel the least bit guilty.
Mothers drove our change. They prefer dropping their kids off at pre-school day care & being in line at school dismissal to pick up their kids. Rest of the staff has come to prefer it- you get off earlier for long weekends opening up non-vacation time options, doctor & dentist appointment are easier to arrange, you can be home to meet workers, etc.
Traffic?
Yeah, but @YJAlleyCat is an awesome fan, because even if she hadn’t been able to rearrange her work schedule, and had to be at work at 7am the next day, she still would have been at the game, right there next to me.
I agree! It seems every sport is kicking *** except for football. Men’s BB - ACC!
Addidas (for the fans) kind of sucks.
People that actually get stuff done.
Good morning @forensicbuzz
Lol, for those who have to be up early.Good morning @forensicbuzz
Seriously, have a great day and I appreciate your input on GT Swarm and your local community.
Not just for the fans if you ask me,… but no one did
From internal funding standpoint only men’s football and basketball are major sports.
Lol. I work at home and start at 6am almost every day. WFH has just shifted my commute time to more work time.
