    In the United States, a standard work day starts around 8 a.m., so people who work those hours need to get up early so they can get to work on time. I think the tradition of starting work early began with agriculture. Until a few decades ago, many people in this country were involved in farming. In that industry, people have to take full advantage of daylight hours to get everything done they need to. That means waking up when the sun comes up and going to bed soon after it goes down so you will be well-rested for the next day. There is also the factor of respectability. Traditionally, people who were not respectable would be out late in bars and clubs gambling and drinking. If you were up and out early in the morning, it meant you weren’t out causing trouble the night before.
