    Hell no. I’ve been salaried and I’ve been hourly. I am more than willing to put in a few 50-55 or so hour weeks a year in exchange for being able to come in late or leave early for appointments without trouble, working about 35 hours a week every other week at most, being able to work from home more or less whenever I need to, never getting flagged for not clocking in/out at the right time… the list goes on and on. My salary is for 40 hour weeks, and I hold to that when I need to. But the reality of my job is that when there’s a crisis I need to be there. I’ll take that for all the advantages any day.

      I’ll take my 32 hour weeks every week with no 50+ hour weeks ever, thank you very much.

      Never had any problems making appointments either. You either had a shitty boss or you were letting yourself be pushed around.

        What? Where do you work that you get paid for 40 hours while working and clocked in for 32 and also get to be clocked in while you’re not there? I have a fantastic boss and do not let myself get pushed around.
