My hours are a little flexi. Officially it's an 8:30 start, but if I get in at 9 I simply have to leave 30 minutes later that day. I quite like my 8 - 4:30 Fridays.

8am for me, which sucks all the ass going (I'm not a morning person).

Up at about 7:20-30 ish, leave by 7:40 and I'm here by 8 - the beauty of being up here is the ability to drive / ride for 20 mins and actually be somewhere else.

My shifts are Monday to Thursday 8 - 4 (my boss lets me work right through instead of having to take lunch) & Friday 8 - 1.30, don't work weekends or bank holidays & get 33 days holiday, suits me just fine.

stupid hours for me.

Either 6am or 6pm depending on night or day shift....and thats for 12 hrs.

Right now I feel the need for a holiday in the sun, I'm turning into a mole, I haven't seen proper daylight for ages!! Go to work in the dark, come home in the dark

I start when i want, and finish when i want. Most days at my desk for 7am, downstairs at the end of the dining room - its a long walk from my bed. Always have my phone with me, and take calls day or night 24/7.

Today is a nice day, so I'll take the bike out for xx. But I'll work thro' Corrie/emmerdale etc, when Mrs B is glued to the tv.

When I started the job it was upwards of an 80 hr week but it a whole load less now.
