Hell no. I show up on time, but they aint paying me to be there an hour early. I'd rather be laying next to my wife for an hour than look at a bunch of ugly assed dudes.

However, I have worked with guys that "needed" to show up early, if you know what I mean.

Never.I have about an hour each morning that is an acceptable window. I'm all over that hour. Rarely, if ever early.

It has its ups and downs. It gets boring at night and even ARFCOM dies down later.

Sitting alone gets very depressing sometimes, the pay isnt the best, but its tolerable.

I show up right on time. I work 12 hour shifts, there is no time to show up early.

At my last job at a small ISP, I was usually right on time, but sometimes a little late because I commuted an hour to get there. As long as I stayed a little later on those days to cover the time, the boss didn't mind. Other than that job, I've always been on time or slightly early.

It was small compared to AOL, MSN, etc. It was actually pretty big for what it was, a local-ish provider serving a lot of rural/undeveloped areas.

I left it to go back to school full time for an engineering degree. I'm enjoying it.
