Holy ****! What are you doing up at that ungodly hour?


It is the best time of the day to get some work done. No phone calls
and no interruptions.

When I was fighting the corporate wars, I always got in by 5:30 AM,
cleared my desk, did what ever was left over, got the day's schedule
rolling. Got more done between 5:30 and 9 AM than I did the entire
rest of the day.

yup, and if I get caught up because I came in early, I just go home and
miss the rush hour traffic.

Funny!

Especially funny since the first thing I have to do anytime I put on rain
gear is take a pee! Usually withing about three minutes!

It was most amusing when the engineers that worked for me came in and
on their desks was anything that I needed done that day - no messing
around - their tasks were set.

I used to intentionally call staff meetings for 7 AM - heh, heh, heh.

Didn't do it often, but just to shake things up and keep everybody on
their toes.

During my last six months in Vietnam, I flew 'Dawn Patrol' over the 25th
Div AO. The purpose was to find any blown bridges, cratered roads, or other
impediments to traffic created by the bad guys overnight. We'd take off
before the sun came up. That daily hour or so will always be one of my
life's highlights.


Never did that, but I did get a ride on a F4 Phantom Christmas '68
over the Central Highlands at dawn.

It was incredible - beautiful wouldn't be too strong a word to use.
Hard to believe there was a war on.

The key word in that story is "eventually".
