Default Re: What\'s your preferred work-life balance?

I'm with OP. When I worked, I hated having to take a later train (even if only by 12 minutes) because of a BS meeting or whatever. On Fridays especially I really felt I needed to seize the weekend and would get mildly depressed if I didn't make the earliest train possible.

That was in a job I hated though, and was over an hour commute each way.

In the old days working retail close to home, I didn't mind staying late if I was getting paid for it. I would also usually come in to cover for somebody if they were out sick and called me in.
