Hello, I start work at 8 am and at first I was always on time and was usually the first in line However, at the beginning of this year I had car problems which led to me having to get to ride to work for a while which would then make me 15 minutes late.

I don’t have to clock in for my job and my boss is lax with time (8:20 is the cutoff) and if you arrive up to an hour late you can make up the time (skip lunch or make up the time by staying later/ arriving earlier tomorrow)

However, because I got used to arriving to work later, once I got my car back I kept it up and even worse, I started arriving EVEN LATER. I used to leave at 6:45 am for a 45 minute commute to get there around 7:30 but now I’m waking up at 6:45 and leaving at 7:45 and arriving at 8:45! I normally just use pto but I’m trying to fix this before my boss speaks to me about this.

So I hope that by making this post I will successfully get to work on time and be able to update positively. Sometimes, knowing others will be awaiting a result helps me to attain said result!

TLDR: I’m always late to work and need to stop before I get into trouble so I’m hoping posting this promise here will force me to get there on time and my fear of disappointing people :)
