There's a special place in hell for coworkers who are enthusiastic, animated, and energetic in the morning.

But it’s sooooo much fun to wipe the smile off of their faces with a well timed snarl and scowl.

But then you run the risk that they’ll think you’re joking and respond with an animated belly laugh that makes your flesh melt off like a nazi looking at the Ark of the Covenant.

I’ve managed expectations to the point where no one who knows me thinks I’m joking, I guess?

I’m always happy in the mornings (when I’m not depressed, fuck depression), snarls and scowls just make me giggle. :)

Flame suit on!

Part of getting older and more mature is getting enough sleep at night - less video games, less cheap booze, and less chasing tail. More being responsible, more taking wife out for a night out and more going to sleep at reasonable hour. That last part is the one responsible for person getting enough sleep. Energy and enthusiasm comes with it.

Makes sense. I’m awake in the mornings, last coffee/energy drink product I had was back in October. :D

Haha - good for you! For me, it’s not depression in the AM, it’s just being tired and groggy. Having an 8 month old child will do that to you. ;)

I freely admit that coffee is an addiction for me. Of all the things to be hooked on, I guess that’s the best option. :)

If you’re a natural cynic, you should pursue a career in blogging.

You’re points are all fair, however:

I fell asleep at 9 PM, only drink the finest hooch, and all of my energetic coworkers are younger than I and my appropriately sedate coworkers are.

I was a running coach for three years.

I quit after getting yelled at for complaining about 6 am start times. (When you get stuck with water setup, that means up at 4:45...screw THAT).

As I get older I find that I put myself to bed earlier, sleep later, and behave more responsibly, and still don’t have the energy I had as a kid.

Youth truly is wasted on the young.

I’m 34 and a health and fitness nerd, working out all the time and eating good healthy stuff with little to no drinking, ever. Even when I get to bed at a nice early hour, I’m just not a morning person.

My wife is much more of an early-to-bed type and when I go on vacation my sleep schedule will shift more towards hers, so if we go to bed at like 10:30, I’ll naturally wake up around 7. BUT, I still am not energetic in the morning. I’m like, ok, let’s laze around, make some coffee, have some breakfast, chill out, maybe think about what we’re going to do that day, take our time, and eventually start the day. I am not OK LET’S GO DO ACTIVITIES RIGHT NOW IT’S MORNING YAY.

Back in the real world, if I get to bed at 11:30 and wake up at 7:30, then I’m ok but still not rearing to go. But I’d just as soon stay up til 1 and wake up whenever it happens on its own, if I had my choice.

In that case, if you woke up much earlier, by the time you roll in to work, it will be late morning, late afternoon FOR YOU and you might be more awake

yeah... my wife is not a morning person. has a really difficult time coming to life.

I’m more of a - hear an alarm, i gotta jump up, shower, get clothed and get going. no sense in wasting daylight.

I woke up at 5:30. You keep trying to find ways to correct my perfectly natural assholism, when the real problem is that my coworkers aren’t suitably miserable and lethargic.

They need more bills and responsibility and less fun. that will surely put them in more miserable and lethargic state.

That sounds boring. My wife would leave me if I took her out for a nice dinner and then was asleep by a reasonable hour. It’s the late nights that give me the energy and enthusiasm.

I’ve never been a morning person. I wasn’t at 15, I wasn’t at 20 and I wasn’t at 30.

I start to wake up around the high tea/coffee hour.
