Shhh, some of us will be at work when the clocks change and will end up getting paid an extra hour when the time clock jumps forward.

Not really getting an extra hour... it's getting paid for an hour you won't actually have to work until Daylight Savings Time ends... then you work 9 hours and get paid for 8... lol

CRAP!  Sorry I'm late getting here guys, but I totally didn't realize today's the day.  I'll put in an hour longer to make up for it, ok?

No, I'll be off work when the clocks change back, I only work like one or two saturday nights a year.

"what the hell are you doing here?"

I work on flex time, whenever I start I work 8 hours then I leave.

My start time depends on how late I stayed out the night before.  When I work 9+ hours no one says a word, but when I work 7 hours, I need to remind the others that I worked 9 hours the day before.

I did start an hour later than usual today, not because I didn't set my clock, but because I didn't want to get out of bed.
