I have the first shift at work for this work 6a m to 2pm. I woke up at around 4:30 am and thinking that it was too early I went back to sleep. When I woke up again it was 30 minutes before my time in. Yikes, I rushed and managed to get a 15 minute bath and then I have to iron my t shirt and rushed out with wet hair. Wew! Im glad my ofice is just a block away and I have made it just on time on the dot 6am. Wow what a day. I started the day rushing things in the bath room and then going out from the house with a wet and not properly combed hair.

Hello Zelmarq! You are not alone. ;) It happened to me many times too. I think you are very fortunate because your house is near your office and you could walk or sprint your way to the office while mine's 8K-10K away and I have to commute to a public utility vehicle to get to the office and pray I don't get stuck in a traffic. You're lucky!

well living just near the office is always an advantage, aside from not getting late I save the money for the fair.

That shift is really giving me a headache. I get headache due to lesser hour of sleep. I would wake up at 4am inorder to water my plants, clean the house and feed my dog and my roaster at home. After that I take a shower and rush to be able to catch the 5am jeepney. The place I am going to sleep is where my brother's house is, I often go there since they live out-of-town. It is tough to catch the morning sked rushing or worrying for the availability of a transportation. Thanks God I often catch a ride and arrive on time. God bless!

yah, thats the problem with cellphone alarm. I used to use cellphone as alarm but it failed many times so I just rely on my alarm clock for a more relibale source.
