[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think OP may be reacting to how so many people talk and talk about how long and hard they work, like they'll get a medal or something.  Or they want to be a martyr.  And it's easy to roll your eyes at those people because you see how much time they waste during the regular work day.

I can't find the exact quote, but I remember someone saying that if you can't get your day's work done in 8 hours, then you ought to pay rent.

You sound efficient, OP.  Don't sweat it, but also don't let the others throw you under the bus.  Make sure the higher ups know that your work is done, and done well.[/quote]

Thanks, PP. You've nailed it. All I hear is people staying late and working weekends. I am resistant to doing that because I know I will burnout. It's just not healthy for me. 
I just don't want to get judged for not working 10-12 hour days. My limit seems to be 9, which I'm OK with. My supervisor has no complaints, so that's heartening. Thanks for the advice.
