Running late for work? Missed breakfast? You’re not alone. New research* shows that many employees still struggle to get up in the morning, with potential consequences for health, working lives, and even integrity!
Hitting the snooze button or pulling the duvet over your head can often result in being late for work, but it seems many employees are reluctant to own up to their bosses about what has really delayed them. The research shows that when late to work through oversleeping, one in three of those surveyed would blame someone or something else, with excuses ranging from]]></description><pubDate>Wed, 26 Jan 2011 08:37:00 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title>If you snooze you lose - EMBARGOED 0:01am Monday 24th January</title><link>http://news.cision.com/ceres-partnership/r/if-you-snooze-you-lose---embargoed-0-01am-monday-24th-january,c538353</link><guid isPermaLink="false">cision292195</guid><description><![CDATA[Four in ten of us miss breakfast in the working week because we oversleep, according to new research*! It’s maybe not surprising, when three in ten people claim they hate getting up and 54% of us set our alarms to snooze. While men often get accused of being lazy and sluggish, the findings show that women are in fact the worse offenders.
The findings, issued for Farmhouse Breakfast Week (Jan 23-29 2011), show that a third of women find it extremely difficult to get up in the morning, and only 13% find it easy. Meanwhile one in three men say they get up immediately after the alarm goes off]]></description><pubDate>Sun, 23 Jan 2011 18:00:00 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title>Shake Up Your Wake Up With Farmhouse Breakfast Week 23 - 29 January 2011</title><link>http://news.cision.com/ceres-partnership/r/shake-up-your-wake-up-with-farmhouse-breakfast-week-23---29-january-2011,c536765</link><guid isPermaLink="false">cision291194</guid><description><![CDATA[It’s time we all started the day the right way, with a quick and easy healthy balanced breakfast.

A new survey reveals that nearly nine out of ten women in the UK judge their fellow shoppers on the contents of their shopping basket. When it comes to sizing up men, it seems that nothing impresses women more than a man who buys red wine and potatoes.
These findings lift the lid on just how far women go when eyeing up men at the checkout, revealing that they decide what their income is, what kind of lifestyle they lead and whether they’d make a good partner or even father, all based upon the contents of their shopping.
