I work 6 to 2. If I need to take a couple hours for a medical, family issue or car appointment, then I let my boss know and he says it’s okay. I’m usually able to schedule things so that I put appointments and so on when I don’t have big meetings. So long as the work gets done it’s cool.

If I’m feeling rotten, I phone in and say I’m either too sick to work or that I’ll WFH that day.

Of course, if I have a big vacation planned then I will put in for leave. I get 25 days off a year.
