I believe in Japan they find our obsession with timekeeping quite odd.
Maybe we should go and work over there?

Couldn't agree more. Especially doing software development where progress isn't necessarily proportional to hours, yet some managers seem to care more that you're in the office than what you actually acheive. Also why I hate being paid per hour, and would much rather be paid per day.
In the 3 months of working at home, I haven't set my alarm, but I still seem to wake up around 7.30-8.00 (doesn't seem to matter if I go to bed at 9pm or 2am), and typically start work between 8.30 - 9.00 anyway. However I do often stop mid afternoon, and maybe do a bit more in the evenings, something you can't do in an office environment. I hate the way you feel obliged to hang around until 5.30, even though you know you're not going to get any more done.Will work inside IR35. Or for food.Comment

At current client, they're insisting that I get paid according to the clocking-in/clocking-off, despite the fact that they know I'm working in parallel for another part of the same company, while clocked in, and charging them seperately. Boomed.Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!Comment
