New Contractor Joins Team - Strictly 9->6

[Flubster]

Agreed. Work to Live and not Live to Work.

In other words...Contractor not Permie

[Weltchy]

Whatever time I decide to get in. I tend to get in around 9am on a monday but get in earlier as the week goes by, settling into around 7am by Friday. I tend to finish quite early, as I tend to play squash at around 5pm, but normally stick in at least one or two 10+ hour days.

[Lockhouse]

I work 7:30 till 5 most days. Like to finish early.

I "work" from 9 to 5 with 1 hour lunch break
Crazy contractors who work from 8 to 7 make life hard for decent folks like us and setup wrong expectations from the client.

What is this "work" of which you speak?

Do you mean 'presenteeism'?

Joey ought to watch himself, I hear the Three Billy Goats Gruff are heading this way.

I've never understood this continuously being at work for long hours: occasionally yes, of course.

Do these people not have other stuff to do? Whilst, even if I wanted to always work long hours, there are so many other things I have to / want to do.
