False props for coming in early

[Deleted]

I got to work about an hour earlier today than I usually do.

My co-worker noticed.  My boss noticed.  My assistant noticed.

Everyone was like, "Oh, getting in early today, eh?"

But the real reason I got here early was just to snag a charging station for my car.  It's like war out there otherwise.

This story had no real point.

Good day.

I sometimes get into work early so I can leave early. And I always try to make sure someone notices so that I'm not "the girl who leaves early." People probably don't care as much as I think they do.

Funny you should say this because all three mentioned that I could leave early today now.  LOL.

And I totally planned to do that.

Of course, I have a good reason -- the stupid UPS warehouse closes at 6 p.m., so I need to get there today, or my package will be returned to sender.

I'm always slightly disappointed when I get to work super early and then no one else shows up for two hours. It's like it doesn't "count". (It totally does as I work in an industry with billables)

Ooooh, is it the new addition to your collection?

H wants a Casper. Well, he wants a Tesla, but I laughed in his face.

Yes, it is!  It is the Time Bokan -- Camouflage Pink by Takashi Murakami.  I am excited to bring it home. 

There is supposed to be a more affordable Tesla coming out in the future.

Your husband may have the last laugh.

An exec here has a Tesla.  It is beautiful.  I parked next to it yesterday.

We have a number of people who start at 7 a.m., so there is always somebody here when I come in "early" for me.  LOL.

Technically, the office hours are 8-5, but people tend to arrive anywhere from 6am to 10am.

I'm usually a 9 to 6 or 7'er.

Ok, like 9:30. LOL.
