Tell us what business you're really in, Babysitting? Pretending to us that you are an EE? Tommy tommy tommy... First off, I'm 3 hours ahead of you. I posted that at 4:48 PM my time. 2nd - I don't have set hours. Engineering staff in the vast majority of high-tech companies aren't told when they need to be there, for how long, or how late they need to stay. I haven't had to worry about that since I was a bench technician punching a time clock in the 1980s. It's not uncommon for me - or anyone of the engineering staff here - to take off in the afternoon or come in later in the morning becasue they had an errand to run. This is how I know you were never more than a bench technician. If you had any _real_ engineering experience, you'd know the term "working hours" for engineering staff is nebulous at best. Hell, your "career" is in the backyard of companies that pioneered the "work-life balance" ethos, and you claim engineering staff are locked into rigid office hours? 3rd, I spent most of friday writing a rationale to defend suggested changes to an ANSI Hazardous Location Standard, for a technical working group I'm a member of. I finished it a little early. I could have stayed home to do or maybe finished it up this weekend if I wanted to. It's a luxury/perk I have as the most senior individual in my department and the title of "principle engineer". -- Add xx to reply
