IDK how hourly workers do it.

In theory it should be no problem for salaried workers, though. The point of salary is that you are supposedly being paid for your work output rather than your time. I know that isn’t always the case, though.

I have been lucky. At every place I worked for the last 20-ish years the salaried employees come and go as they please. It’s normal to leave for a mid-day appointment and then come back to the office. All that matters is shit gets done in a timely manner and we’re available when people need us. I wish everyone had that level of flexibility.
