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".
