I know what you are saying. My comment was just a point of sarcasm over all the war on women crap.

My wife works in an office wherein she is the only one on time while others arrive anywhere from ten to 30 minutes late each day. She fumes about it as her plate is full while the workload is not. She got a surprise when she got a promotion recently. The upshot is she is now ostracized! You cannot win sometimes.

Where I currently work, I am generally the only one who is on time. It seems to be pretty casual about punctuality. For me, it is a matter of being a “morning person”, wanting to have some time to settle in, in the morning, check some personal things, be ready to be productive right away. Also, I am NOT good at doing anything at home in the morning, other than getting showered, dressed, and ready to go (no chores other than maybe toss a few bits into the cat bowl and rinse out my coffee cup). I would rather be ahead of the big traffic surges, as well. Leaving home 10 minutes later can add 15 or more minutes to the commute.

Congratulations to your wife! That is good that she was recognized for standing out in a positive way!
