This is why I choose to start early if I can at my job. Last job allowed me to start at 6am and leave at 3pm. It was great. I still had part of the afternoon to do grocery shopping and stuff before everyone was out from their 9-5 jobs. And I always had some sunshine after work during winter months. And the office was quiet. Some of my most productive time was that 80-90m before the next person arrived.

Current job starts at 8am. I’ve got better at enjoying the time before work because I can walk there in 10m. If I had to drive and deal with traffic, I’d be this meme, watching the clock and feeling anxious.
