Time clock hacking trick.

Time clock hacking trick. If you have to clock in and out on your computer, turn it on before you get into the office. This way it’s ready to go and you don’t have to wait several minutes on YOUR time to clock in.

    Wouldn't it make as much sense to never turn it off then?

    OP here. No. Would be a waste to have it on when you’re not there!

    If you're not paying for the electricity, who cares? The energy used would be minimal. I don't shut down my office computer because I need it for remote access on occasion. Otherwise, it's in sleep mode and password protected when I'm not using it.

    My computer times out and sleeps then shuts down. I don't have to clock in on my computer but realize some folks do.

    They mean so they don't have to wait for their computer to boot up then clocking in later than they really are starting.

    "Turn it on before you get to the office" --are you saying to turn the computer on remotely (which most people don't have the ability to do, because if you are remotely accessing a computer, it needs to be on) or are you turning a laptop on at the beginning of the commute/in the parking lot so it's booted up by the time you get to your desk?

    This post is really unclear.
