We were flexible but they changed the rules recently. I'm never more than 3 minutes late.

Part of my problem is that I assume I can do everything in the shortest time possible. It's like a have a competition against the clock, even calculating the stop lights, length of time for shower, etc... I take meds at night that make it hard to get going in the morning and I need all of them.

A big part of it is the odd hours that always change. There is always a split shift one day a week that starts early in the morning. And I might work late to close the night before. On top of it, I'm working on my MBA with online school.

I'm doing better since I confided with all of you. I haven't been late once since. I need to focus more on this because I know they don't want to lose me and they would hate having to report me for excessive lateness.

You all helped me so much and I'm thankful I can turn to you because you all understand like no one else can. You are all precious to me.
