Get in early, or leave later?

I was, but for some reason my group of 5 people had been grandfathered for OT for weekend work.

At first it was time and a half, then they knocked it back to straight time, then when we were officially getting paychecks from the new company it went away.
That sux. You have to do a lot of weekend work?

Not much anymore, only when there's problems or a MAJOR upgrade of some sort. But then it's usually just conference calls.

When I did NT servers 5-8 or so years ago, we had a lot of weekend work that we had to actually come in for. At first we could even park in the garage below the building :fly:

Just out of curiosity, which does everyone prefer. To get up and in to the office early so you can leave at a more normal time, or to take your time and leave a little later than the norm?


I also have no real choice when I get to leave. I HAVE to be the last person out. I can only try and get everybody to hussle and get a move on. Once everybody is gone, then I can leave.

I used to, maaaan that was sweet. Then we got bought out.


I get overtime pay, but I'm encouraged to avoid going over hours. My boss has to talk to me about it to make sure I do not go over hours to start OT, because then his boss gets upset about the numbers and extra money that was not budgeted for the overtime.
