The Early Bird Catches No Break-Careers Employment

载入中...
More of us have a choice of when to start work these days, and increasingly, we're setting the alarm for sleep-stealing predawn hours.

About 37 million Americans begin their workday between 4:30 and 7:59 a.m., according to the Department of Labor, and Businesses from the Washington, D.C., subway (open at 5 a.m. as of September 2004) to Starbucks (many stores also open at 5 a.m.) are helping us get there. Starting early has its upsides. Traffic is sparse, the workplace lacks distractions, and a 6 a.m. start will have you Home when school lets out -- in theory. Unfortunately, in many offices, "staying late is like the red badge of courage," says Ellen Galinsky, president of the Families and Work Institute. "We still have this notion that presence equals productivity." While attitudes are changing, some early birds have to slither out the back door if they want to leave pre-5 p.m. and still be "team players." Hmm ... Start early, still stay late. That better be one tasty worm.
