《卫报》一篇题为 The joy of small things 的文章也出现了这个表达：
当然啦，下班的表达是“clock off”,那么上班就是“clock in/on ”【When workers clock on at a factory or office, they put a special card into a device to show what time they arrived.】
举个栗子：
They arrived to clock on and found the factory gates locked.
他们到了工厂准备打卡上班，却发现大门没开。
这两个短语也偏向于“打卡”上班哦~看到这个，我想到学生年代每天很早起，很晚睡的生活了呜呜呜
同时，关于“clock”，我们之前也在词汇积累 | 'amputate', 还真有点可怕....出过一个短语：clock in at (光盘、电影等)时长为/数量为……【If something such as a CD or film clocks in at a particular amount of time, it is that amount of time long.】
