Do you include the time in the shower, the drive to work, eating dinner when your thinking over that problem that has been bugging you all day long. How many napkins have been filled with scribbles.
Why is it when you are busy everyone whats it yesterday, But when your not no-one has any work for you?

Sleep???
You know that even a healthy 60 years old man has slept for 20 years, hence has waisted lots of his time given to spend here in earth. You anyway be sleeping after you die.. so stay awake as much as you can while living here...

Normally we work 37.5 hours each week (7.5 hour days). But in the summer we work an extra 40 minutes each day and get every other Friday off. Then we don't have to use our vacation so much to get a few extra days in the sun during the summer. Anyone else have a program like that?

I work four 9-hr days every week, then leave by noon every Friday.
To be fair, within reasonable limits, I can make my own hours.

My first 'real' job was a bit like that. We started at 8:30am daily, but finished at 5, 5:15, 5:15, 5, 4pm M-F for a total of 37 hrs a week. Our department had a Time Off In Lieu (of overtime pay) so that we worked an extra 1/2 hour M-Thu and finished work at noon, Friday.
And - we got to watch Concorde taking off from the private runway, now and again!
Sadly, I've never had a job like that, since.

We work 9 hr a day and just get 2nd and 4th Saturday off.  compare to your schedule the working Saturday is too much for us.

Ouch. That kind of schedule just doesn't sound healthy.

We have flexitime, officially we work 35 hours, but most of us do 40 or more because 1) it gets the job done and 2) you get more days off. At busy times we can do upto 50 hours, if we need more we get overtime paid. I did 60 hours a week for 6 months once (overtime and Saturdays) and it nearly killed me.
Working too long is not productive. I find after 8 hours coding I can't see straight and I make too many mistakes.

What exactly means work ?
Is it how much output( business value) produced or just sitting in front of office computer or attending meetings/Trainings ?
|

it's not about productivity, it's about being unfree!

On the train and bus station jibe and comparing it to work...
Aren't train station and bus station - places where a train or bus starts too...
So are you really looking at glass half-full or half-empty? Perspective matters !

Nooooooooooooo, not again, the positive thinker strikes again!
Let me tell you, mister positive thinker, one of the advantage of negative thinking that will get you thinking!
When you are a pessimist, you get only good surprises!!!
Whereas the optimistic is either deluded or very very lucky... :P

It depends on the nature of the work, for a manager meetings are more important than debugging a code. An untrained programmer will be spending more on debugging than actual production. So what you mean by business value?. The business value is not just a value at one point of time. It is the rate of improvement over time.
