So, how early is too early to arrive to your place of work? I’m not referring to starting you’re duties without permission before an agreed start time, but instead arriving at you’re place of work earlier in order to have time to prepare for the day or night ahead.
For example, I always arrive 30-45 minutes early. This allows me time to grab a drink from the canteen and mentally prepare myself for the shit that lies ahead.
Yesterday, I arrived at 8.45pm with a start time of 9.30pm. Our workplace has high security and is a government owned building, so you need to show ID each time you enter to a manager or security. A manager answered the door, said who are you (I was wearing my motorcycle helmet) so I showed him my identification. He said, you’re a bit early aren’t you? I replied without thinking ‘Yeah, but I can be late if you prefer’
Anyway, how early is too early and do you have any similar stories or experiences from being organised in the workplace? Lmao
