How is that losing money? I don't follow. Unless gas adds up to more than OP's salary?

Depends if you care what the boss thinks.

Yes. I live 10 minutes from my job so it's not that big of a deal.

Only is you are up for promotion soon or have some other reason to need the face time. Otherwise, I would focus on providing quality work and maintaining your sanity.

In the words of my dearly departed BFF (in my head), HELL TO THE NO! Face time be damned.

With that commute and the fact you're paid hourly, I change my answer to no. Doesn't make sense if you get to spend 3 hours on the road so you can be at work for 3 hours, and still lose money. Can you work from home?

I'm hourly, so I'd actually lose money going.

If my boss valued presence, then yes.

Yes if you will get points with the boss and your commute is not terrible.

No, if facetime is not valued and/or commute is more than 30 minutes.

Assume nothing pressing needs to get done, but "presence" is something boss values. Would you go?
