Did you ever notice how the freeway on a Friday is already very busy by 3:30p.m., but on any other day of the week, it does not get busy until about 5:00. I wonder what percentage of people, slide out early on Friday. That is if you have a job that is flexible enough or untrackable enough to get away with it.

You are obviously not from California!!!  Please tell me where I can go where the freeway isn't busy until 5pm.\n\nAt my work the bosses leave early and everyone communicates by cell phone anyway so it is easier to sneak out unnoticed.

that's a great question and a good thought. it would be helpful and more convenient to the many of us who work during the weekday, rather than to get all stressed and rushed-out trying to get back to our districts trying to beat the crowds and the lines!

If you are worried about traffic, make sure your home and work are on the same side of the river.  Commuting across the bridges during rush hour greatly increases your travel time.  And <strike>Albuquerque</strike> (make that) New Mexico motorists will drive you insane if you have to commute any decent distance.

I am almost always on time, but circumstances can arise that are beyond your control that cause you to be late. If you are habitually late, then I would say that it was rude. If you are early by more than about 5 minutes it is rude. If you find that you have arrived early, then wait in your car or drive around the block until it is the right time to arrive. =-)

Sometimes they work at night.\nIt's not always obvious.\nAs long as the sign is there, without a time qualifier (eg "8AM to 5 PM), you can get a ticket for not driving the reduced speed.

I agree totally! People, shes not saying postpone the race till Monday. All she is saying is what I was thinking. That is why not wait since they have daylight till 8:30 at night to finish the race. I mean come on they stopped how many times for rain delays and then when the race started getting good they called it instead of waiting an hour or so to finish it. But I am with you totally that they should've waited and at least let them go another pit cycle if they could've. I have not seen that many strong cars running at the end like that. Kasey,Carl Edwards, Junior and even my man Kenseth after a crappy day was sitting in 12th and who knows what he had left. I think they were way too quick to call it. But I do think they should've have said once its too dark too race that's it but they had already reached the halfway point so racing on Monday was out of the question no matter what.

Well, yes. But there are a lot of people that do it when they go out weekends. Try my work schedule. I work tue-thurs 8am-4pm and fri/sat from 11pm to 7am!\nI'm all messed up!! Seems you should be getting enough sleep though. Nine hours weekdays and ten hours on the weekend is pretty good! If thats a regular pattern bodies tend to adjust after while.

Sometimes, it can go wacky for a bit until it goes back to normal. You just switched it off a schedual and it needs to adjust.

No. My poor husband had to work, though! He's an assistant manager at a retail electronics store. His manager told him to be there by 5 a.m. - and they were going to be written up if they didn't, or were late. So - he was there at a quarter till 5; the MANAGER didn't show up till 5.30!

My favorite day of the week is Friday - only 1/2 a day at work - weekend starts early for me!\n\nMy least favorite would be Wednesday - the week is not moving fast enough!

Yes.  Today my husband and I left our home to deliver papers at 2:20 am.  We finished at 5:30 am.  On our way home, we got a flat tire.  Long story short, through a series of events, our radiator was leaking and we had to be towed to a place to get it fixed.  It is now 7:45 am.  The car wasn't fixed until 11:30 am.  I got home and go to go finally at 11:45 am.  That is over 9 hours.  \n\nBy the way, I'm a teacher.  I never have time to go the bathroom.  I'm so busy with kids, lesson plans, etc., that I guess we feel if we cannot leave class to use the restroom, you will have to use it on breaks.  I know it is hard to get from the classroom to another classroom in such a short time, go to your locker and to the restroom.  Try getting a pass for a little extra time from one of your teachers.  \n\nI just try not to think about it.  It really isn't good for you at all.  If this because a real health issue, ask your mom to have your doctor write you a note.  Teacher's have to pay attention to those.

I'll bet the conclusion showed that more accidents happened on Friday the 13th. Wanna know why? Because people get too wrapped up in trying to avoid "bad luck" that they are too easily influenced/distracted by other things that normally wouldn't faze them.\n\nBut I'm wrong, correct?

Yes. If you are not where you are supposed to be at the exact moment you're supposed to be there, you're late. If you have to clock in or your computer is monitored, the supervisor knows instantly. Do it more than once without a dire emergency like a car wreck on the way to work, and your employer is within his rights to write you up for habitual lateness. Upshot: get up earlier, take an earlier bus or train, learn that work is work and not play. Be there on time. It shows you're reliable and responsible.

Sometimes things can come up that causes a delay in the system, so it's possible that they really were just not able to get back to you.  Plus, it was a Friday, during the summer, which means people involved in the hiring decision might have left early for the weekend.  I know how it feels to be waiting - that drove me crazy during my job hunt.  I would see what happens tomorrow, give them the chance to get back into the office and deal with beginning of the week stuff, and if you don't hear from them by later in the afternoon, give them a call and let them know you would enjoy working with them very much, but you have other interviews scheduled, so you would like to know the status of the hiring decision.  They should understand and let you know what's going on.  Or you could call on Tuesday - whatever works for you.  (I would need to call on Monday for peace of mind!)  Good luck, I know how you feel.  I hope you get the job!  =D
