When I'm late I make up for it by leaving early, it's simple mathematics:
-> Arrive 2 hours late = + 2 hours
-> Leave 2 hours early = - 2 hours
Nett result: 0
And then there's Fridays (well was like this when I was last f/t).
-- It's poets day, there is no reason not to leave early, it's proscribed thus.
-- If poets day is not observed in your area, then there is always the "I'm meeting someone outside."
I miss full time working .... not!
This internet thing is amazing! Letting people use it: worst idea ever!

Well no. If I arrive late, I leave early, so I can be early at home. Otherwise I am also late at home, and I would hate to be late twice in the same day.

I like your maths...2 Hours late (+2) leave 2 Hours early (-2) = 0

Pro Tip: place your alarm in a place you can't reach without getting up. Mine for example is right next to the bedroom door.
When it sounds I have to get off the bed, walk to the alarm clock and turn it off, while it wails incessantly. By that time I'm awake enough to not risk falling asleep again (unless very ill, it happened once and I had 40°C fever. Passed out until 2 PM).

Oooh, I have done that but I sat down after I had disabled alarms and went to sleep...

So you had a 25 minute window that you could "swipe in?" That seems very generous. Why'd you foul it up?

There was a load of visitors by the door where the swipe point is (only use the swipe point for your unit as you will be logged into another unit, gives fire marshals a head ache if it's needed) nearly knocked out one guy as I opened the door with some haste. ![Green Alien | [Alien]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/alien.gif) knows who they were, just in 'awe' of help desk manned 24 Hours a day, 365 days a year!

That sounds like me. I have fallen asleep while standing in queue as well. I have a gift. I can sleep anytime, anywhere and in any situation. 
Think positive. Most people would leave early so you would have a quiet and empty office all to yourself. You can either write a good amount of code or make copies of your rear on copier machine.

Most people would, however it's getting toward the end of two major projects (one of which is a death march according to the project manager!), so I appear to work with workaholics & divorcees  !

I have an idea for a simple 2D game and am thinking about trying to go cross-platform.
Let me start with, I considered Unity first. For various reasons, not interested in advice about it.
To stay in VS/C# land and save money, I'm considering using CocosSharp. I'm usually reluctant to invite opinions, but I could use some advice here.
My biggest concern is that the last update (of CocosSharp) on GitHub is comparatively old. Is CocosSharp still a viable alternative? Or, am I about to use an already extinct dinosaur?
Anything else you'd recommend? Again, my focus is free/cheap, simple, 2D. In an ideal world, VS/C#, so I can stay comfy on my PC. Though, I'm flexible on that goal.
Most of the other options I saw out there seemed expensive, complicated, and/or 3D oriented.
UPDATE:
I'll leave the thread open for continued Unity cheerleading, since this seems to be the only opinion out there. Sigh...not sure of the purpose of repeatedly posting "use Unity", but too each their own
Regarding the original topic, since I'm leery of CocosSharp's continued support, I've decided to experiment with MonoGame instead.

Have you checked out unity? It is free up to a certain level (<$100k), and they have a 2D toolkit that may be downloaded for free.
Also, I'm not sure if you are going cross-platform that you can stay entirely on the PC when it comes to apple. I believe you need a MAC to compile the code. You can still use VS on the PC, but it needs to send it to XCODE for compilation (at least that's how it works based on my limited Xamarin experience).

Unity. You can code in C#.

Really? It's pretty much a goto standard for simple games.

I hear you. Its certainly difficult (I'd say impossible) to mistake its popularity

My point was, it is what lots of people use for simple gaming. So, if it's too much for you, I'm not sure what else would be simpler than Unity.

Definitely Unity (using the 2D parts).
Works great on the PC and uses c#.
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

LOL,
Use Unity!!
Everyone is using it, C#, 2d ...
