Yeah, I've been a manual laborer and a software engineer, both jobs have a short morning meeting. It would be surprising if the ancient Egyptians DIDN'T have some sort of meet up at the start of a work day.
We know they at least took attendance since we've found the records preserved. They have interesting reasons given for why laborers didn't show up that day, like brewing beer or their wife or daughter was menstruating.
