I work up at 6:55am, and after bathroom time, eating, and playing with the nephew, I realized around 7:40 I would not make my 8am train because I still hadn't packed my bag. I would be able to get out by 8am

How does it take you to leave the home after waking up?

 

[jacksonpt]

alarm goes off at 6:20, lay in bed struggling to wake up until 6:30, then in the shower, dressed, breakfast eaten, lunch packed, ride clothes packed, kids fed/dressed, out the door by 7:15.

 

[antimony]

Really, it should only take me about 8 minutes, but I have a hard time actually getting out of bed, then I sit with bv for a few minutes. Throwing on clothes: 2 mins, brushing hair: 1 min, oral hygiene: 5 mins.

 

[SkaredShtles]

Alarm goes off at 05:45, carpool picks up at 06:15. When it's my week to drive I'm up at 05:45 and out the door by 06:05.

 

[Dog Welder]

15 min.

 

[binary visions]

I wake up early because Jenn goes to work earlier than I do and I never go back to sleep afterwards.

I wake up at 6:00. I don't start getting ready, though, until about 7:40. Takes me about 20-25 minutes to shower, shave, brush teeth, get dressed, grab a bagel for breakfast, put on my shoes and get out the door.

When pressed, I can be ready in under 10 minutes but I usually don't like to rush.

 

[The Toninator]

i wake up at 6:05 and am in my cube hole by 6:40 except when i stop for breakfast on friday.

 

[amydalayna]

takes me 20 minutes if i don't have to shower. i also eat breakfast in the car and make coffee at work.

 

[TreeSaw]

I am usually up and ready to leave in 20 minutes. Now a days, I get up earlier and leave at the same time, but I am also nursing the baby still so it seems like it takes me an hour to leave once I am up, but I would say 40+ minutes of that is baby time!

 

[McGRP01]

I wake up at 6, feed the baby while my wife gets ready, hop in the shower, brush teeth, etc. while my wife gets the baby dressed, get myself dressed, get my daughter up, get her dressed, make coffee, get all our sh*t together and am out the door at 7:15.

 

[jimmydean]

I take between 15 and 30 minutes. I get out of bed around 6:00 and I'm out the door no later than 6:30 to grab coffee and catch the bus at 6:40.

 

[captainpolution]

[binary visions]

[Tenchiro]

My alarm is set for 5:00a but I snooze a few times. I am usually up and out of the shower by 5:30. I sit around an ingest caffeine/surg the internet until 6:00 then get dressed and leave by 6:15a to be to work by 7:00

 

[Ciaran]

2 days a week I wake up late, lag, have coffee, post here, then leave... two days a week I am up by 6:30, and in the office by 7. I am taking fridays off for the next couple of months.

I hate mornings.

 

[johnbryanpeters]

I typically get up at quarter to five and leave about seven.

 

[laura]

Alarm at 4.30. coffee, feed animals, Run/weights/yoga, laundry, dishes, breakfast, fix lunch, shower, pack bag. out the door around 7.30. I like to relax in the mornings.

 

[amydalayna]

[OGRipper]

I get up around 6:30 (don't need an alarm), make coffee, shower/shave, get dressed/drink coffee/check the intarweb, and am out the door by 7:30 or so. I've tried the morning workouts but it just doesn't work for me, the most I can do is a bike commute across town.

 

[narlus]

most of my morning is consumed in equal parts by showering and creating the Song of the Day threads.

 

[Atomic Dog]

Alarm goes off at 3:50, I'm generally out the door around 4:45. I could cut that down by 15 minutes or more, but I hate being rushed in the morning. I'd rather take my time and relax for a few minutes before heading out.

 

[valve bouncer]

I never get up before 9. Sometimes work an hour in the morning. Usually start work at 4pm finish by 9pm. Today was a long day, finished at 10pm.

 

[freightGOD]

alarm goes off at 6:20, lay in bed struggling to wake up until 6:30, then in the shower, dressed, breakfast eaten, lunch packed, ride clothes packed, kids fed/dressed, out the door by 7:15.

Exactly my morning routine....down to the times and everything....


are you stalking me??

 

[stinkyboy]

I wake up around 6:30, sit with my head in my hands for about 15 minutes wishing I wouldn't have drank so much the night before, ask strange girl to please leave, turn on local news and grumble at moronic talking heads, ice cold shower to shock my system into waking up, get dressed, stare into fridge with disappointed expression, decide I'm too hungover to ride, find keys and stumble to car around 7-7:15.

 

[TurnerGrl]

Up by 5:15 AM (also no alarm) most days - roust dogs if they aren't already up and have a few minutes of playtime, stumble downstairs, let dogs out and feed them, jump in shower, dressed and out the door by 5:45 AM for the hour or so drive to the office in Boston. Pack for the gym or riding or whatever the night before, and have breakfast and whatnot at work. On days when I am on the road for clients, get to sleep in longer depending on where and when I need to be.

 

[douglas]

30 (includies packing lunch & eating bfast)

 

[sanjuro]

if i don't pack the night before, i am screwed the next morning...

 

[dfinn]

about 1/2 the time I'm out the door from whithin 30 mins from when the alarm finally stops going off (many snooze button presses). the other 1/2 the time I tack on an extra 20 - 30 mins for walking the dog.

 

[riverside73]

Up at 4:57 AM, out the door to the gym at 5. Home by 6:45. Shower and have coffee, eat, feed kids, walk them to school and start work at home around 9.

[captainpolution]

I miss not having a job where I have to be showered, shaved or have respectable clothes on

too bad thats for school but i digress...



anyways. whever I do happen to go to work, whenever that might be, it usually takes me like 30 mins to get ready, shave, shower etc.

 

[Toshi]

i always aim to set my alarm for an hour before i must leave for whatever i'm doing that day...

 

[PonySoldier]

Up at 4:23am generally out the door showered with coffee at 4:50..

 

[sanjuro]

I find bike commuting takes me much longer to prepare than driving. Leave something simple, and you may regret it later.

 

[Repack]

Usually ~15 minutes to shower and shave, ~15 min to dress and get out. Have breakfast at work. If I lay out cloths the night before (but rarely do) and don't shave, I can cut the total time down to close to 20 min.

 

[Total Heckler]

I have pretty much streamlined my morning wake up process.

It takes me 10 min to get out the door. The Sonicare 4 minute brushing cycle takes the most amount of that time.

 

[dogwonder]

6:30 - wake up
6:30 - 6:50 make breafeast, put lunch together
6:50 - 7:00 eat breakfeast, watch CNBC
7:00 - 7:20 take a pooh
7:20 - 7:30 shower, shave, dressed
7:30 - out the door
7:30 - 8:00 drive to work
8:00 - commence being a slave

 

[Westy]

15 minutes to shower and dress, another ten to let the dogs out feed the dogs and feed myself.
