Well, I generally come in at least fifteen minutes late. I use the side
door, that way Lumbergh can't see me. Uh, and after that, I just sorta
space out for about an hour.

BOB PORTER
Space out?

PETERYeah. I just stare at my desk but it looks like I'm working. I do that
for probably another hour after lunch too. I'd probably, say, in a
given week, I probably do about fifteen minutes of real, actual work.

I have to. My 5 o'click shadow hits well before 5 o'clock.

At night when I take my shower, I shave pretty quickly leaving the odd patch here and there. In the morning, I just clean it up.

it regularly took me 10-20 minutes longer to get home at my last job because of traffic.

 

[Exterous]

I'm pretty lucky that my work has flexible hours. As long as I work 40 hours a week and am in the office at least 3 days M-F between 6am and 6pm they really don't care. To break the monotony of the week I vary my work day starts and lunch lengths. And my commute is 5 min. In fact, it takes longer to walk from the parking lot to my desk than it does to drive home. (granted the only day I leave the office at 5pm is Friday. Other than that I always leave earlier)

 

[Supermercado]

6:30 - get up, shower, shave, get dressed, make my lunch, eat breakfast
8:00 - out the door
8:30 - start work
1:00-2:00 - lunch
5:30 - head home
6:15 - get home, start dinner

I eat when dinner's ready, depends on what I'm having. Evenings are spent watching TV, listening to music, browsing the web, playing games, and so on.

11:30 or so - bed

My typical day isn't very exciting because I'm looking for a job. Just last week a company flew me down to Madison, WI and put me in a hotel for a night. I had a couple days of touring and interviewing there and seeing what the job entailed. AWESOME place. I should hear back from them this week sometime, and am hoping for good news. I hear they don't spend the time and money on a person if they aren't seriously interested so I think I have a pretty good chance. And if that happens, my days will definitely change quickly.

Madison, WI is awesome? Did I miss something, or are you just happy about the job?

I was more referring to the company and job. But the city seemed great when I was there. It's ranked as one of the best places to live. Clean city, lots of shops and restaurants, great location on the lake and there's tons bike trails and lots to do around the area.
