[quote=Anonymous]8 to 4:30, of which 30 minutes is unpaid lunch; I eat at my desk. I have coworkers who come in as early as 6:30 and as late as 9; many work a compressed schedule, though I do not. Clocking in is not strict -- if I arrive a little late, I work a little late that day -- but I have seen people let go after abusing that. With regard to lunch, nearly every agency policy requires a 30-minute unpaid midday break, and OPM's examples of the different compressed schedules reflect that. If your agency doesn't require it -- or, as is more likely, your supervisor doesn't enforce it -- then good for you. I think they should require it, though, because I don't believe anybody here puts in a solid 8 hours straight without eating, peeing, chatting (even if unwillingly), getting up for a drink of water, etc. It's just like billing time in the private sector: you can't bill every minute (if you're honest) so you are in the building longer than your billables reflect.[/quote]
