It took me 40 mins to get my son to school today, and another 45 mins to get to work. I am thinking I will get off work earlier, because I am not sure how the whole traffic scene is gonna look like when school ends.

aaahhhh the many things I have to do to keep my cool when driving.

just thought I would share .

have a slightly traffic free day.

I know I'm allowed to leave work at 03:00 pm. But that will affect my productivity at work.

I do not have a problem working my eight hours or more while fasting. But I feel JEALOUSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS of those leaving early..:))

Well, I am still happy we're in Ramadan, so everyone is forgiven though I'm steaming..:)))

Ram, it is already Ramadan 4th day!! why does it flash so fast!!!

Must be an old joke. Used to hear it all the time in UK when the first brought in flexi hours.

By rayyz• 16 Sep 2007 11:23

Nopes still around. Will be leaving in 10 mins. I've yet to come across another firm that has flexi-work-hours. If you know off any, do let me know.

took me about 5mins...yeh... but i'm doing nothing at work now... like my good friends in Kahrama... take a look at the basement offices there and all you'll see is them guys (95%) sitting away from their desks and talking... what a life!!!

Glad to see that great option to 'flex off' whenever one wishes to is still alive and well!

Or have you already flexed off home ....

P.S. to ram, if he's watching. The above is an example of a euphemism, which I was trying to explain to you on PM the other day ;o)

It took me less 3 mins to get to the office! I beat Darude too.. Yeehaw!

Reasons :

1. My office is at Toyota Tower and I live 2 roundabouts away :P

2. My workplace has always been great in keeping this 'flexi' work hours during Ramadan, where you walk in anytime between 6.30 AM to 8.30 AM, put in 5 hours of work and go back home

3. I obviously came in at 6.30 AM. Will be back home by 11.35 AM to watch some great cricket and Formula 1 this afternoon :-D

Cheers!

5 min from home to office all you need is to know the short cuts :)

Leave home at 6 to reach office relaxed at 8.

Same on ur way back. Leave office at 1 and get home at 3

So you will stay outside home for 9 hours to put 5 working hours.

Wife will think seriously you are having an affair.
