It's Friday! I thought that would never happen.

9am isn't too early to schedule a meeting for, like, normal people, right?
Well *I'd* grumble, but only in my head. And I'd show up for the meeting. But I've been spoiled by working for MSFT, because core hours there are understood to start at 10am.

I worked with engineers. They thought 7:30am was reasonable, if not late (ouch).

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
My old boss wanted us in by 7:50 or so, so we could be oriented and have read overnight emails before Monday through Friday 8am meetings. My current boss doesn't drive in before 9. Neither does my manager. We have 1 8am meeting on the regular books, and that's because it's a con call with India.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I'm skating, working, going to a movie, SAME AS ALWAYS BECAUSE THAT'S HOW I LIKE IT, BITCHES.

I bet there's data to support that the earlier the meetings, the more toxic the corporate culture.
