I am an employee and would love to know other employees' habits and routines when they arrive in their workplace.

first, i'm going to turn on my computer. while it's running, i fix myself - like combing my hair, etc... then i open emails. if there is a need to answer some urgent issues, i immediately make a reply. but if not, or if it needs to check some data, i just turned it back as unread and just get back to it later. then i'm working on updating my shipment monitoring sheet... and the rest just goes as the come...

Yeah, i guess to. You are quite energetic even early in the morning @aejey322... :)) I don't have that kind of energy so i really need the aid of coffee... Your employer must be very lucky to have an employee like you..

well, maybe because my energy boosts in the morning that's why i directly do my work... but when afternoon comes... "it's internet browsing time" or should i say it's "myLot time!" so they are still not that lucky enough to have me here

When I used to work i used to sat a little prayer and them start my day at work. if not prayer still I remember God. I think it was good habit and whenever I join another work I will do the same. Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful day ahead.

well, i prepared my to-do things list for the day. it takes me about 10 minutes. i do this while i am turning on my computer. then, i prepare a coffee. afterwards, i go back to my workplace with the coffee and checking emails and facebook. and then, i start my day with the first thing on the to-do things list.

We almost do the same thing, except that I sometimes forgot to do my "to-do list". haha. I always make a cup of coffee for myself 'coz I feel like my day wouldn't be complete without it. Then check my emails and facebook notifications while sipping my coffee. With that, my working time would be fine the whole day!

When I arrive in the office I always think topics to be discuss to my staff. I gather all the records from yesterdays operation. 10 minutes before our work start I give briefing to all my staff. Our work start at 8am in the morning. It means, 7:30an I need to be there in the office to prepare for our briefing.

When I arrive in the office, I clean up my desk (since the janitor sometimes failed to clean the table), turn on my computer, check for emails and clean my inbox. I check my voicemails for new messages, list all the needed things to do, make some call-outs and prepare for another day at work.

It's been more than a month that I usually arrive very early in the office. I would always make a cup of coffee and would eat my breakfast.

so, what happened lately? For me, I admit that i'm not that punctual when it comes to going in early. But still, I get a chance to make some coffee... :))

I will clean up my table,the same as my surrounding,and make my files organized.After the cleaning,I go to the kitchen and make ready the coffee maker,then I put some water to boil in the kettle,then go back to my table with my hot milk because I do not like coffee.I have to arrange my files,so that when my boss arrives and needs my files,I am already ready to hand it over to him.Knowing other people in the place can still be achieve by the constant encounter everyday,at least you have some talk in some ways and little by little you would know them.I do not go to them to know their names,because it might be bad for your record for making such move.I just do my duties within my limits.

Soon as i arrived in the office, i usually would just open my computer first, see some new emails if i have received them... and then i would get my tumbler and head for th pantry to wash it and fill it up with water. :D that is usually the routine i have here at work ever morning. :D

Since I am a Supervisor, the first thing that I usually do is to check for our emails for possible announcements or feedback from our clients. I am actually working in a BPO industry and quality towards our job is our most concern in order for us to stay working.

First I do turn on my pc, open my online radio, check my mails. Then I will wash my mug to make a hot coffee fund some food to eat the start working after eating. Sometimes some conversation with some colleagues about things in life.
