Now, all of us love our office jobs but one Spanish woman has taken things to a totally different level.
She just got the sack for clocking in 40 minutes before she was as a consequence of start, despite pleas from her boss to reach later.
The 22-year-old worker had been warned for 2 years to stop arriving between 6.45am and 7am – a full 40 minutes before she was due in.
Despite being told she wasn’t allowed to clock in or begin work ahead of her 7.30am start time, she kept showing up at dawn with nothing to do.
Her boss eventually lost patience and sacked her for serious misconduct, arguing that her relentless early-bird routine meant she wasn’t actually contributing to the corporate – only ignoring instructions.
The girl appealed to the Social Court of Alicante in Spain, insisting her dismissal was unjustified.
But judges heard that she had ploughed on together with her routine even after multiple verbal and written warnings.
She arrived early on not less than 19 occasions.
On some days, she even tried to log in through the corporate app before she reached the office.
Her employer also accused her of a separate breach of trust: selling a used company automobile battery without permission.
The court said this added to the pattern of disloyalty.
In its ruling, the court backed the corporate, saying that the problem wasn’t her ‘excessive punctuality’.
Her stubborn refusal to obey workplace rules was a serious breach under Article 54 of the Spanish Staff’ Statute, the court ruled.

The girl should appeal to the Supreme Court of Valencia but for now the judgement stands.
It comes after a Florida woman was let go by her recent employer before she had even began after what seemed to be a typo error.
The girl, named Alice, was sacked after she failed to point out up on her first day, which was September 2.
Nonetheless, the e-mail wherein she was offered the job stated her first day can be September 22.
