    well there goes my chances of landing a job. I had one thing mention a flexible work schedule and I asked them about it like can I make my own hours or shifts or decide how many hours to work or what. Did not hear back. Don’t know if they don’t like my questions or if they would have blown me off either way.

          You can arrive 15 mins later than usual on every other friday. And you are expected to stay after your normal work hours for no additional pay.

          That’s flexibility for you.

            seriously people who do this need to stop. Do your 8 and your 40 but no more. I mean if you are being paid a premium which would be at least 200k in the us. Then fine do the bit extra but honestly most jobs asking for that are not giving enough. You should as a single income have zero worries about paying bills and have a good amount of disposable income to make it easier to enjoy the time you do have in that situation.

      Interviewed at a place. Asked how many hours for a normal work week in engineering. They casually say 45-50. Mentally shut that door so damn fast.

        Honestly I assume 50 if it pays well. Im increasingly seeing where I think they want to float on the idea the experience will lead to a better job with the good pay but want all that. And they are looking for experience that someone would have had to be in the field at least 10 years to get so the person should not need the exp to get better pay. If the corps want to make the recruitment process a sodomy contest then imma out.
