Many people who work crazy hours do so voluntarily and it should not be a requirement. I'm glad you do leave when you're done for the day...don't let others peer pressure you into it. Plus, if you start working late where you are and getting more done, they'll start expecting that, and then you're in a real pickle when you want to leave at a normal hour.Angelinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12098744323184143823noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8791125355431273627.post-36585600748641070112011-07-02T00:20:22.183-04:002011-07-02T00:20:22.183-04:00I don't see the problem with leaving if your o...I don't see the problem with leaving if your obligations are met.Crosby Kenyonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02518264859721428889noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8791125355431273627.post-61778786379499295702011-06-29T08:01:37.877-04:002011-06-29T08:01:37.877-04:00I carry the same guilt about leaving early.

How does one get to the point where they feel comfortable leaving early, arriving on time, not working on the weekends or taking a vacation? I have yet to master that. Tips would be appreciated.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05117711965212766305noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8791125355431273627.post-48466371841724094732011-06-27T15:17:15.092-04:002011-06-27T15:17:15.092-04:00I feel this way sometimes too.

But I hate staying late just for the sake of not looking like the first to leave. Many of the people who "work" until 7-8pm are ones who don't manage their time well during the day and then they make comments like "oh, working a half day?" if someone leaves on time. If you're getting your work done it shouldn't matter if you leave at 5pm or 10pm and if people have that much time to notice and comment, they can't be THAT busy!Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07005036475888458542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8791125355431273627.post-63714158215356358502011-06-27T12:17:25.365-04:002011-06-27T12:17:25.365-04:00Totally agree with you!

My goal this year was to actually have a life and leave on time and work less weekends. You have to enjoy some YOU time! Especially now that the weather is so nice!! :)christinamghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11060801886093248117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8791125355431273627.post-90905462481873110372011-06-27T11:32:01.255-04:002011-06-27T11:32:01.255-04:00I had a recent conversation with a coworker around...I had a recent conversation with a coworker around this topic. I was saying how I treasure my daily 45 minute lunches which I spend eating and reading. She responded by saying how she would love to do that, but everyone else in her area works through lunch and would question her work ethic if she took daily lunches. Instead she takes extra long lunches out with friends every few months.<br /><br />That blew my mind. Taking a period of time away from my desk in the middle of the day is so important for my happiness. I still work the same number of hours as I would if I worked through lunch, I just leave later in the day.<br /><br />This also reminded me of a few other separate discussions with other coworkers who all admitted to taking PTO time, but still working. Like using PTO time to go work from home (even though working from home is perfectly acceptable) or taking PTO time because their internet is down, but still working on other assignments. Isn't PTO for TIME OFF from work?<br /><br />It seems there's a shift to putting in more and more time at work, as though just being there/on counts more than quality work and efficiently spent time. I don't understand why people feel guilty "only" working a 9 or 10 hour work day, taking a lunch break even if they still work the same number of hours, or simply taking a day off from work. I will never be that person and if it means I get slightly less money/promotions in the long run, so be it. I'm happier.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8791125355431273627.post-32240025488900693182011-06-27T11:21:50.533-04:002011-06-27T11:21:50.533-04:00You definitely deserve it.

My problem is that when I leave early (meaning after a 9+ hour day) I get the feeling that I am guilty. Like they make me feel guilty. But I don't see them spending over 60 hours in the office every week.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
