Late for Work

Yesterday I woke up late because my alarm didn't ring. I looked at my phone and it was already seven thirty. I jumped out of bed, put on my clothes and ran out of the house without breakfast.

The bus was full, so I had to wait for the next one. When it came, it was full too. I decided to walk. It takes twenty-five minutes on foot, and it was very hot. I arrived at the office at eight forty-five, sweating.

My boss looked at me and said, "Rough morning?" I said sorry and explained about the alarm. She smiled and said, "It happens. Get some water." I was lucky. That evening I bought a second alarm clock.
