shugabooga Posted February 22 Report Share Posted February 22 keep hydroxycut and bottled water by your bed. as soon as the alarm clock goes off, take two hydroxycut with three huge gulps of water. either the hydroxycut will wake you up, or you'll have to get up to pee.

shugabooga Posted February 22 Report Share Posted February 22 i'm lucky my boss is really really tolerant of my chronic tardiness. even when i lived only eight blocks from work i would be late. the reason he tolerates it is because he knows that once i'm here, he can keep me here LATE! bastard!!!! like a wolf in sheep's clothing...i guess he wins huh!!!

shugabooga Posted February 22 Report Share Posted February 22 i was just kidding about the hydroxycut, but i bet it would work. however, if you're unfamiliar with its effects on you, then start out with just one...i take mine first thing after getting out of bed and by the time i'm outta the shower i'm wide awake without drinking any coffee. great hangover cure too.

laurensomers Posted February 22 Report Share Posted February 22 As long as you do your work and do a good job - it shouldn't get you fired. But I guess that depends where you work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mel-o-d Posted February 22 Report Share Posted February 22 This is a topic I know well. All my life I have always had trouble getting to school on time. Somehow I wound up w. a job that begins at 7:30 AM. I am late for work at least once a week. On Tuesday I got a stern talking to from my horrible boss ... that night I went out and bought a new alarm clock. It has only been 2 days but I've been getting here on time. Oh, I've also been told to put my alarm clock far out of reach from my bed. Supposedly getting out of bed to turn it off helps. Didn't work for me though, especially on those cold mornings when I would just pounce back into my nice warm bed. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
