I have a conference call at 8 tomorrow morning. Apparently, this is when normal people go to work.

I'm trying to figure out how to be on the call while getting dressed for my 9 am office hours.


Thank God I don't have to commute!

1. Was it scheduled by someone here on the east coast?

We have people here in positions of authority who like to do that to our people further west, just to show that they can make people jump through hoops. :(

5. Yes. Yes it was. The same people who insist the Annual Meeting next summer can't be held

in the Midwest. It's a group studying pacifist theologies. These people are making it MOST DIFFICULT to stay on task!! :grr:

2. that's when the devil works

You should have known that - hit the books! Anything before 9 is completely insane for anyone, and anything before 12:30 is unacceptable to the likes of me.

3. Yep, I used to have sign on my front door

In Headhunter font: If you knock before noon, you'll meet your doom.

4. A colleague of mine likes to point out that terror attacks take place in the morning.

Oklahoma City--9 am.

9/11--8:45 am to 10:30 am

Madrid--7:30 to 7:45 am

London--8:45 to 9:45 am

These attacks have one thing in common. Do you have any idea what time you gotta be up and at 'em to have a good terror attack operational by 9 am?!! The danger isn't Arabs, or religious extremists, or white supremacists! It's morning people!!
Neurotic, narcissistic, type-A morning people!!

But does anyone listen?

6. your friend is right

anyone willing to be awake and working at those hours obviously wants to destroy the world, and is just doing their own little part by even being awake then. Ok, it may be almost 6 am here now, and I'm still up, but that doesn't count, because I'm awake from yesterday.... there may then be some excuses for being up at those hours then, I guess.

Or, as one of the characters in 'Repo Man" says, 'Night, day; don't mean shit'
