This is the second day in a row I've overslept and woken up between 11:30am and 12:30pm. Stupid poker.

Fortunately it isn't really a big deal at work but I still feel like a degen.

If you'd like to have a future at this company I'd be really careful if I was you about this sort of thing. Sure, they'll say it's fine, but you'll be known as the guy who's always showing up late and will get a bad image which can affect later prospects. In life as in poker, image is everything.

at most computer companies it does not matter how late you come in, as long as you get all your work done and then some

your work is your image, not your work habits
