I really wish corporations/society were more understanding that you cannot make someone into a "morning person".

"We want you here first thing in the morning!"

No, you don't. I'll be grumpy, mean, slow, and disinterested in the aesthetics you want me to reinforce.

I'm a programmer, not a barista. Either you don't need me at 6 AM, or you need to pay me overtime because if you NEED me something is very wrong.

It's all about control, having power over people, the same kind of stuff that kings and other rulers get their jollies off to.

I am not a morning person either but my boss won't have any of it. it's his loss anyway.. if the tosspot cannot understand how people's bodies and minds work.
