How early do you wake up for work?

Wake up at 8 to work at 9.

Probably going to start waking up at 7 to go to the gym in the morning instead of after work, soon.

M-F 8:00-4:30

Wake up at 6:00 because fiance takes a shower before me. I rest my eyes until she's done around 6:30.

Get to work around 7:45-8:00 depending on if people want to merge correctly. I've seriously had a 15 minute slowdown because people can't merge. Not an accident. Merging. If I get to work at 7:45 I'll do my coffee prep and start early so I can get a few more minutes in at the work gym.
 
I have to get up by 5:10am to make it to work at 7am.

If I am really late I can drive to work but driving is PITA and parking in Manhattan is like $12, I try not do it unless I am doing OT.

Usually I wake up at 7:30 to go to work at 9.

Twice a week I travel to another site and wake up at 5:30 to get there at 9
 
Around 6:10 AM for me. Wake up, get the kid ready for school while fiancée gets ready for work, push them both out the door by 6:40, then shower at 7:20 or so, to get out the door by 7:45 to catch a 7:50 bus to work. I work 8:30-5:30 currently, though that's changing in a few weeks.

I naturaly wake up at around 7 or 7.30, but snooze until around 8 or 8.30. I work from home and I'm usually at my desk at 9.15. Work starts after checking mails and stuff, at 9.30

5AM. That gives me plenty of time to walk the dog, shower, eat breakfast, make lunch, and catch a bit of the news before catching my 6:45 bus to work.

I'm sort of with you, OP. I do morning radio and wake up at 345am for a 5am shift. I'm out at 1pm every day, so that's nice.... but like you said, I'm in bed pretty early. I used to work a split shift, 5a-9p, 3p-7p M-F. It was awful.
 
Alarm clock goes off 6 am but rarely I go up at that time. I usually snooze for like an hour or more. Big believer in snooze and gradually waking up, usually I can't even remember the first few snooze button hitting periods.

Today for instance I got up 06:10 and got to work at 07:15 am. Yesterday I dropped in at work at 9 am.

(I have flex hours at work so I need to be at work latest 9 and can leave earliest 15. currently at 10+ hours. )

6am: Exercise & get ready for work
7am: Leave for the office
7:40am: Arrive at office
8am: Work begins.

As a father of 2, the Mornings are the only time I have to exercise.
 
4:30 am. 7:00-7:15 am depart. 7:20-35 am in office.
Work start at 8, but I like to avoid traffic.
Finish at 5 pm if its a good day, if not 5:30~ pm which I actually like to avoid traffic.
Basically, I rather have stress free traffic on my day of work.

Roll out of bed at 7:30 when my wife is out of the shower, get dressed and walk across the hall to my home office to start work by 8

Wake up anywhere from 6:20-6:50 AM, catch my bus a nosehair before 7:30 AM, get to work at 8:00 AM, post on GAF until 4:30 PM, go home. Rinse, repeat, Monday through Friday.

On weekdays when I don't have school, I work about 4pm to 11pm, and I typically wake up at like 11am or noon.
On weekends I work 9am to 11pm and usually get out of bed at like 8:15am.

I WFH on Mondays and Fridays and only go into the office on Tues-Thurs.

On the days I go into the office, I wake up at 4:30 a.m. and work a 5-2.

On the days I WFH, I wake up at 7 and work a standard 9-5.

Mon/Tue/Fri, work from home, get up at 5:55>snooze>6, work 6:15ish till 2:45, then extra hours, often 2-3 per day, to get extra time off. I find it easier to do that at home.

Wed/Thurs, work at the office, get up 10 mins earlier, get to office via car + public transit at 6:55, leave at 3:25, home at 4:15ish.

anywhere between 630 and 745. I try to get to work at 9 but my morning routine has some complications so it takes me a while.
 
I start anywhere between 6am and 7 am (I shown up when I feel like it) and usually get done between 5 pm and 6 pm (I leave when I feel like it).

If I want more hours, I stay late. Or come in saturday. If I feel like it.

MUH FEELS!

5am or 6am for an 8am start, depending on whether I have to take public transit the whole way or I can get a ride to a point.

I start at 9. Finish at 5.

I woke up today at 7:50 and left for work at 8:40. Got in at 9:23. I usually try to get out of bed between 7 and 8 am.

I aim for 9 am but usually arrive at 9:15.
 
I work M-F 7:00am-3:30. I usually get up at 6:00am and out the door by 6:40. I thought probably start getting up at 5:45 though.

Waking up 05:40 and commuting with train plus a 15 minute walk between 06:30 and 08:15. Leaving work 16:40 and stepping inside my home at 18:35.

I'm only expected to do this for 6 months and then I can work from home 3 days a week.

Waking at 6am, going for 30 minute walk, exercise a little when I get home, chill & breakfast and begin commute at 0817, arrive to work around 0850.

I'm very lucky. I work from home 95% of the time, meaning I wake up at 8:50am to get to my computer with a coffee by 9am

Out of bed at 7am, usually in my chair by 8:00 or 8:10, I live like 5 minutes away from my office so that helps.

My alarm is set for 6:20 AM. Pretty much every morning I snooze once for ten minutes that I spend snuggling with my wife before I get up and get ready. Usually at the office (15 minute commute) by 7:15. Usually leave by 4:00. It's a great schedule for me. I can usually completely avoid traffic, and I get a lot done before other people show up at the office starting ~8:30.
