When you go to the office do you get there before the office staff arrives? Do you spend more time at the office when it is closed for business?

Any day I have to be in the office I show up early, no distractions! Prefer to work from home though, still need to hold team meeting etc so I go at least twice a week.

When I worked out of an office a few years back, the only time I was there (other than duty time - groan!) was after hours. Too much gossip and fooling around for my liking.

We have only a handful of people who actually "office" at the office. Most work from home. Rich and I are both working at home now. We go in to meet clients, or other agents, but that's about it. Usually during business hours.

I just moved back into an office setting part time (still working from home a couple days/week), and yes, I've been in between 7-8am. Not because I'm an early bird, but because if I try to get here at 9am a 20 minute commute becomes a 50 minute commute.

If I go to the office it is generally at 7am and no one is there.

If someone is at the office I would assume it is open for business.
