Start at 0800, leave at 1600, half hour for lunch. They won't countenance paying me for overtimne so understand that I will never do any. Bit like getting a plumber in to fix the shower for $100 and then asking him to fix the washing machine, you know, as you are here already but for no more money. Yes, like that would ever happen! It is disrespectful to expect you to work for nothing.

“The thing for you is a burial permit. You have only to speak and I will see that you get it.”
start between 7 and 9 normal leave between 4 and 6 (but they won't kick you out for working later) an hour between 11 and 2 for lunch 40hrs/week Normally 8hrs/day, but if you have to leave early for something and would rather make the time up than take leave that's OK too. Excepting when i stay late to make up a late arrival/early departure I probably work under 10hrs of OT/year.

8.30am - 5pm, some people flex it, so long as the same hours are done it doesn't matter though. 1 hour lunch and 2x 15min breaks Can't quite remember the overtime pay. I come in when I should and leave no later than is required.

But there is no scale for this, right? Amount of time taken for a work depends on person-person.

My contracted working week is 35 hours, 9 to 5 with an hour for lunch. Normally, I'm in a little after 8 and I only lunch Thursday & Friday down t'pub. That said, thre is the flexibilty to come late some days or leave early. I don't normally take it because I push to the limit during the summer. When the family are at home in Hungary, I'm normally out at 3 on Friday, to fly over for the weekend and then I fly back Monday morning arriving at work around 11. I was also doing that every week for two years before the family moved over.
Panic, Chaos, Destruction. My work here is done.

they ask me sometimes how long would I take to do this project, and I'm not that experienced to tell them how much times its gonna take.

That's when you use the "factor 2" rule: make a mere effort estimation and multiply it by two.

That's _at least_ 6 hours then, otherwise you will have to come on Saturdays (since obviously 5d*6h/d < 37.5).
