How much time do you give yourself in the morning between waking up and starting work?
- Thread starter Officer Big Mac
- Start date
10 minutes. Enough time to make a smoothie, get my coffee ready, and brush my teeth.
I wake up up 7:50 and am generally out the door at 8:00.

I need at least 30 minutes. I get up by 7:30 each day, leave by 8:00. The key for me has been going to bed by a certain time. Somewhere between 10-11pm has been the sweet spot.
My standard was always one hour before heading out the door. But I'm so damn lazy nowadays that even that isn't enough time and I end up rushing out the door last minute having not even done the basics, or I sleep in and just give 15 minutes to throw clothes on and gather my things.
i need about 45 minutes minimum to 'get ready' before leaving for my commute (20 minute walk at the moment).
An hour and a half usually, but sometime more. Sometimes I only give myself 30 minutes before I need to leave, and I don't do makeup that day
I wake up at 5, and go to work at 8.
Plenty of time for my daily exercise, even a short session of video games.
I know it's a totally different culture out there, but I just can't imagine having such a lifestyle where you get up and go to work immediately.

I've taken to setting my alarm an hour before work. That's ~30 minutes for breakfast, some light web browsing, and taking a leak/dump, ~20 minutes to shower and get dressed, ~10 minutes to get to work. The short commute is nice but easy to take for granted, and I've probably been a little late more often than I should when cutting it too close -- I should probably start tacking on another 15 minutes or so to account for the occasional morning sluggishness.
I can't imagine having to handle a 45+ minute commute with traffic making it tough to estimate the best time to leave.

If I have an early shift, which starts at 6, I usually get up around 4. If it is not too cold I go for a short run and then I like to bum around with my newspaper, drink coffee, make breakfast and so on. I don't like stress first thing in the morning so I always make sure I have ample time.
Generally 2 to 3 hours but I work nights. Soon my shift is changing to starting at 4am so I intend to wake up at 3am when that happens though.
Enough time to pee, brush, drink water, and get to my computer since I work from home. So like 5 minutes.
wake up at 8, leaving at 8:50, get to work at 9.
I get up immediately, make coffee and maybe breakfast for me and the lady, in the shower by 8:30, out the door at 8:50.
I wish I could shower at night and not deal with it in the morning but it just doesn't work for me.

I used to have to close the kitchen after karaoke night Saturdays, and then be back for brunch cooking Sunday morning at 6:30 (or 5:30? Been a while). Such a nightmare.
The first. I tend to sleep as long as possible before leaving for work. I start at 9 o' clock and sometimes I sleep til 8.15 and do everything in a hurry. Big benefit is my work is a 10 to 15 minute drive max. This year I'll be moving and the distance will be even shorter, so I'm gonna take the bike to work.
Also I don't tend to eat breakfast so my prep time for work is minimal usually.
Set my alarm at 5.40am, set a second alarm for 15 minutes on the other side of the room. Have breakfast and out the door at 6.40. I commute 3 hours a day so no social life after work. Enough time to make the lunch for the next day, shower and dinner. They am hour of study them bed.

I wake up at 5:00am and leave to work at 8:30am.
So I have 3 hours to spend as I wish. I stretch myself, study English, meditate, go for a run. When I come back I take a shower, read some magazines and take a 30 minutes nap. I wake up at 8:00am and I prepare the lunch and leave to work.
I go to bed at 10:00pm.

About 30 minutes before I start work. Enough time to feed the dog, shower and get dressed and roll into my office
I get up around 6:30, take a shower and eat breakfast before a short walk with the dog. I leave home around 7:10-7:20, take the subway and am usually at work around 8:00.
There is no way I could get up and leave within five minutes. That sounds terrible, even though I'm not a morning person.

Up at either 6:40 or 7 at the latest. Usually leave for work around 7:50am and get there for around 8:05-8:10am. Don't start 'til half past but I prefer to get in early rather than sit around the house.
"I get up around seven
Get outta bed around nine
And I don't worry about nothin' no
'Cause worryin's a waste of my, time"

I get up, brush my teeth, throw on clothes and walk to the bus stop, usually about ten minutes total.
