WTF! Is this a city, state or federal job? I would kill for a flexible hours policy. I do know how you feel about vacations, though. This year, my plan is to take off the month of August. :slayer:


Federal job. Not to sound pretentious but a pretty well known agency. We do get busy and work hard contrary to my last post but overall its extremely laid back with very little micromanaging.

I teach at a university and my earliest class is at 2 pm so I usually wake up around noon, walk about 60-70 minutes to the university, grab some brunch and go to class. Go to bed around 5 am usually so I get around 7 hours of sleep a night. I can't see myself working outside academia.

You don't feel like riding a bike or taking transport?

There is a shuttle bus going right to the university - takes about 10 minutes but I enjoy walking. Good exercise.

Depending on what is going on.

If we're in the middle of a deal, I usually get up at 6:30 or so, hit the gym, get home and do my thing, and I'm in my office by 9 to 930.

If we aren't too busy, I can get up at 845 and get in by 1030 - 11

I generally wake up around 6:45a. Used to sneak the odd work out in before work so would get up around 5a. Not a morning person so it took me years to be able to get in this habit. Just had a baby so now I'm relearning everything all over again. The good news is that I find it much easier to get out of bed for the baby and then get ready for work than I do just waking up for work.
