4 day, 10 hour days... any days of the week is fine, but would prefer weekends off. also would prefer like a late morning schedule, maybe 10AM to 9PM, half hour lunch, 2-15 minute breaks.

i prefer being true salary.. work the days and hours i want.... getting the job done, and doing it well being the requirement.. not the amount of time sitting at work..

which it pretty much is for me now.

Same here, except that once you get into that position, it's generally more hours than less. Atleast in higher responsibility roles where overtime no longer is applicable.

My hours varies from week to week.

Most hrs/wk = 56 (incl. wknds)

Least hrs/wk = 38 (incl. wknds)

My ideal work week is M-Thrs 10 h/days.

yeah, i get 'flextime' at work to ensure that doesn't happen.. i have to fill in 40 hours a week.... i can carry hours between weeks, anything extra is taken of a few weeks later....

in the summer i tend to take off early almost every friday....

one company moved me to salary cause i used to work so much overtime. i started leaving around the time i was supposed to leave and not finishing my work.

they put me back on hourly my next summer term.
