(Most in my office work 8-5:30 or 6 so my "short hours" sometimes get the side eye.) DH was working flex retail hours, but just got a new job. I am hoping to shift to 7:15 to 4:30 and that he can work 9-5:30. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/full-time-woth-parents-what-are-your-office-hours/page/3#post-1795131 Sat, 02 Aug 2014 07:34:26 +0000 hotchildinthecity 1795131@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're "technically" 9-5. But i haven't left at 5 all week. I'm usually in by like 8:30 and leave around 5:30. I almost never take a lunch. I'm fully aware it could worse. I work extremely hard when I'm at work though so I don't have to work longer hours. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/full-time-woth-parents-what-are-your-office-hours/page/3#post-1795118 Sat, 02 Aug 2014 06:51:30 +0000 catomd00 1795118@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine are 9-5 soon to be 830-430 so I can get dd from daycare on time. </p> <p>My Husbands are more flexible but he typically works 930-530 to avoid traffic. He also works from home quite a bit so those days he just does whatever. He's in sales so not really your typical 40 hour week. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/full-time-woth-parents-what-are-your-office-hours/page/3#post-1795115 Sat, 02 Aug 2014 06:44:19 +0000 artsyfartsy 1795115@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH 5am - 3:30pm<br /> Me: 8am - 4pm </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/full-time-woth-parents-what-are-your-office-hours/page/3#post-1795040 Fri, 01 Aug 2014 23:15:02 +0000 Grace 1795040@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Other.

I am 11am-7pm with lots of other stuff (calls/emails/etc) throughout non working hours. Post-baby that's all going to change because there's no way to make that work. I'm changing to a 9 to 5ish type job after maternity leave and my husband is switching to 8:30 - 5, since our daycare closes at 5:30! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/full-time-woth-parents-what-are-your-office-hours/page/2#post-1794667 Fri, 01 Aug 2014 15:31:37 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 1794667@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I worked from home 830-5. But I was home so it was pretty flexible. I was usually "on" from 10-3. </p> <p>DH is in training so he's working 8-430. Eventually he will be back on shift which flips between days and nights that are 12.5 hours (615-645). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/full-time-woth-parents-what-are-your-office-hours/page/2#post-1794658 Fri, 01 Aug 2014 15:20:41 +0000 NurseMommy 1794658@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Emsmems: most of the floor nurses work 7-7, and the other ERs in our area are either 7-7 or 7:30-7:30. No idea why our hours are different. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/full-time-woth-parents-what-are-your-office-hours/page/2#post-1793555 Fri, 01 Aug 2014 07:24:31 +0000 regberadaisy 1793555@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm 8-430. His differs; it's either 10-3/4, 3/5-9, 10-9 (SUCKS) and on the weekends 10-5 on Saturdays. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/full-time-woth-parents-what-are-your-office-hours/page/2#post-1793482 Fri, 01 Aug 2014 06:16:33 +0000 Mrs. Coral 1793482@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Me: 8-4 officially but I usually leave around 5-5:30. Busy times I stay until 6-7. Really busy times 9-10pm. </p> <p>DH works 7-3:30 summers and 7:30-4 winters. </p> <p>I will do drop off and he will do pick up. We will see why my schedule looks like after baby. I will not handle missing bedtime routines very well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/full-time-woth-parents-what-are-your-office-hours/page/2#post-1793448 Fri, 01 Aug 2014 05:00:23 +0000 matador84 1793448@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I drop off at 730 and get to work about 740. I work anywhere from 4-530. Usually 5ish.

Interesting! Do you work in a hospital? ETA just saw you work in the ER. That explains the different shifts... Unless floor nurses work that too?</p> <p>We don't have office jobs. We don't work "normal people hours". Haha. I'm 7am-7:30pm 3 days a week (nurse). DH is 48 hours on (7am-7am 2 days later) then off for 4 days, then repeat (firefighter). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/full-time-woth-parents-what-are-your-office-hours/page/2#post-1793374 Thu, 31 Jul 2014 23:46:37 +0000 NurseMommy 1793374@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>0800-2015 or 2000-0815.

By the time I get LO and get home, its usually 4:45. ETA: We also tend to have a lot of trainings and meetings after school, so on those days I don't get home till 5 or later. It really sucks when I have to leave at 6:45 am. And "meet the teacher" nights or curriculum fairs? I don't get home till 9 pm and go whole days without seeing LO at all. Boo</p> <p>DH works 8:30-minimum 6:30 pm.....but sometimes he needs to go in early or work later. It's "early" if he's home by 7 pm these days. He also works through lunch most days. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/full-time-woth-parents-what-are-your-office-hours/page/2#post-1793294 Thu, 31 Jul 2014 21:59:40 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 1793294@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Espion: ditto. My schedule is too unpredictable to list. When I'm on service I get in at 7 am and try not to work past 7 pm now that I have kids. Overnights are generally 16 hours, but can run longer if I'm still admitting at seven am. Off service things are much more flexible. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/full-time-woth-parents-what-are-your-office-hours/page/2#post-1793233 Thu, 31 Jul 2014 21:18:37 +0000 mrs.shinerbock 1793233@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: Yep. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/full-time-woth-parents-what-are-your-office-hours/page/2#post-1792447 Thu, 31 Jul 2014 15:30:03 +0000 lovehoneybee 1792447@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Me: 8:30-5, but I get there at 8 (so I can get a parking spot).<br /> Him: Other, semi-flex second shift. Mondays he usually works 12-12/1, and by Friday his schedule is more like 2-7/8. In times are set, out times are flexible. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/full-time-woth-parents-what-are-your-office-hours/page/2#post-1792125 Thu, 31 Jul 2014 13:21:31 +0000 My Only Sunshine 1792125@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I work part-time - 7:30 to 5 three days a week and 7:30 to noon one day a week. The 7:30 arrival time is half an hour before the office technically opens but I come in early to get my hours up to 75% to qualify for health insurance while still being able to have a half day and one day off.</p> <p>DH works 7-4 so I do drop off and he does pick up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/full-time-woth-parents-what-are-your-office-hours/page/2#post-1792089 Thu, 31 Jul 2014 13:08:11 +0000 lilteacherbee 1792089@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I work 8:45-3:45 and DH works 7:30-3:15. </p> <p>The schedule is one of the only pros to being a teacher in this state! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/full-time-woth-parents-what-are-your-office-hours/page/2#post-1792004 Thu, 31 Jul 2014 12:45:21 +0000 lavender 1792004@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do 8-5 M-Th but can change if patients cancel on me.<br /> DH works 9-4, so he does pickup and drop off. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/full-time-woth-parents-what-are-your-office-hours/page/2#post-1791744 Thu, 31 Jul 2014 11:45:02 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 1791744@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's usually 8-4:30/5, but it's pretty flexible. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/full-time-woth-parents-what-are-your-office-hours/page/2#post-1791733 Thu, 31 Jul 2014 11:42:56 +0000 plantains 1791733@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>9-5 is the guideline, but it really doesn't matter much so long as the work gets done. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/full-time-woth-parents-what-are-your-office-hours/page/2#post-1791705 Thu, 31 Jul 2014 11:37:38 +0000 BKCaribBaby 1791705@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MsLipGloss: Former attorney, so I get billables (and don't miss them!).
