good morning! I am at work now, I have been getting to work on time each morning this week and last week I showed up at work 3 min late on morning, and 1 minute late another day.
My goal is to show up early everyday for 6 months. I am aiming for the employee brunch we will have for being here on time 6 months in a row. :) I know each day its getting harder, I showed up at 7:59 1 min befor 8am. I work 8am-4pm.
I go to sleep between 9pm and 10pm each night, but they are fitful sleep nights.
I guess just any encouragement and suggestions on what can be done, I have 4 children, my SO, my sister, my sister in law, neph, 2 nieces, 1 cousin all staying with me at the moment.
just a little bit of info to start with.
Oh yeah, just another bit of info, the casino where I work is using a point system, 12 pts, and you are fired, ex. 1 pt for showing up 1-3 mins late, 2 pts 3-15 mins, 2 pts for calling in, 3 pts no call no show, etc.
That should be enough reason for me, but I am still not getting here EVeryday on time.
I have went through many jobs, because of my time mgt. in the am, not leaving home on time, to make it to work on time. tardiness, and abscense are my two most reasons for not keeping jobs.

I'm hoping to get this attitude in other areas of my life, and set a good example for my children, cause like it or not, they are following in my foot steps.
I was wondering why everyone at work was looking at me funny yesterday, until my supervisor told me to look at the new schedule? It said my new hours are from 7/5p. ugh!
I laughed at my mistake, and he apologized becuase no one called to let me know. So he allowed me to make up my time for losing that one hour yesterday. whew.
But on the plus side, I get 4-10's, and 3 off days, that allows more time to spend with my family. I am happy.
I just need to get used of waking up an hour early. My son is happy because I leave when he is leaving for school. I made it on the dot this morning. I need to get here early our clock in scheduled 7 mins before start time. that is my goal.
