I used to work a crappy schedule - 7am to 12pm then 4pm to 8pm. I knew that once I had a family, my family life would suffer so I left. I started a business and now work 6-2 most days of the week.

4 -10 hour days Tuesday- Friday straight time. But can be called out anytime outside those hours.

Depends on how busy I am. I like to work 6 to 2, but it often turns into 6-4, which is fine. I try to avoid OT because it's hard on budgets. I'd much rather have the time off instead of OT anyway.

Retired now for just over 3 years. When I was working, it was pretty much 8 hr. days, 7:00-3:30. A little overtime here and there, but not much.

He is genuinely concerned that you are eating well balanced meals and that all of the food groups are properly represented in your diet. That is just how Nessy rolls.

Scheduled 12 but offered 16 most days and forced 16 sometimes when declining the overtime and no one takes it voluntary.

Being salaried, the inability to get overtime pay can be tough.
