I mentioned this elsewhere but unless you have sensitive skin you should be able to use a safety razor pretty much like a 3 or 5 blade, ie without a ton of prep. Pretty much wet your face, apply cream (although I haven't tried it with the cheap foam stuff bc I stopped using those awhile ago), and go to town.

If you want to make it a whole thing it will probably get you a super close shave in the end, but if your goal is just to shave before work it should work fine in the same amount of time as the multi-blades. I've never had much luck with an electric-- I've got pretty thick hair and electrics inevitably pull at some of my hairs instead of cutting (I've never tried a high end electric though), so discovering safety razors was great for me.
