Rushing to work

[Mycroft Holmes]

I once had a contract with the NHS in England where the edict was no more than 35.5 hours per week would be paid. They then said I could average the hours over a month, I was in heaven. I normally work 50-55 hours in a week so I had at least 1 long weekend a month - bliss.

I am on flexible time and work 7 hours (not counting breaks) somewhere between 0600 and 2000. I may work up to 10 hours per working day, with the overtime being booked into my time account, which allows -25 to 250 hours. If I have more than 250 hours, I can transfer up to 150 hours into my lifetime account, which I can either use when I retire or have it cashed out when I quit/retire. The time account may be used up without specific notice, but I need to file for whole days in advance.

We're on flex-time, so our arrival/departure times vary. We are supposed to be here during the "core hours" of 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. I usually arrive at work at about 6:15 a.m. and work until 4:00 p.m. I take a long lunch break (usually 90 minutes) to go running or to lift weights in our fitness room.

Currenty, we pay all our employees salary (all are FTE, no contractors/PT) so we have established work hours from 8AM - 4:30PM, although we have some who we adjusted based on circumstances (mine are 7:30AM - 4PM). We expect people to be on time, do thier work and leave on time. We do very LITTLE overtime (as in none), and I can't think of a time I've had anyone work late or on a weekend... :laugh:

core hours are 9-4 (minus an hour for lunch) with free choice of which side of the core to put your last two. Management wants pro forma notification if you're working something other than 8 to 5. If something happens and I'm late/have to arrive early one day as long as I have 40hrs by the end of the pay period I don't need to use any leave. Standard weasel working about not being able to use core hours to avoid client meetings applies. :rolleyes: While salaried, federal contracting regulations require you actually work 40hrs/week if you're billing that many so going home early every day during a slow period isn't an option.

My company is flexible; my boss comes in after 8am so he can drop off his daughter at day-care and miss the bad morning traffic. Last week we had a really nice day and almost everyone left early.

I show up whenever I want. Usually this is between 10:00AM and 11:00AM but this morning I was here at 7:00AM (when I can not sleep I go to work...)

... and then leave early because you've developed an acute case of Qwertyitis a few hours later?

:laugh: Had to google that one. No I usually manage to stay awake during the day although I admit it is a little difficult today. Either way I am trying to get out of here before 4 instead of my usual 6 to 7.
