[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Gen X person who generally goes "above and beyond" (in the negative sense of historically not making waves and in my 20s would have been there at 7 if someone told me to).

I think: the calendar should have been blocked for a personal commitment in advance. Following that, "personal appointment" should have been the stated reason. All else ok [/quote]

So even though typical work day is 9-5, you’re supposed to block out your hours outside of your work day as personal time? That actually seems counterintuitive — do I need to mark every day at 6pm for family dinner and 10pm for bedtime?[/quote]

If I need to leave at the dot of 5, I block (not OOO) 4:30-5 and the set OOO from like 5-6.
Same general principle staring at about 8. This is maybe specific to my office when we have people WFHing all over US and some flexibility is sometimes required. Some team members put their working hours on their calendar and that should be honored as well. So not all hours but yes to ones that overlap with other people's regular hours. Some people even on east coast do prefer 7:30-4 (even though I don't!)[/quote]
