Re: when do you get home in the evening?

Work from home at least once a week (can be on higher side too).

Otherwise:

Commute Distance: 34 Kms each way
Start time: Between 12:00 and 13:00 Hours (commute time of 75 minutes)
Return time: Between 21:00 and 1230 Hours (commute time of 60-70 minutes(

Been this was since the last 5.5 years and I am happy.

But traffic bottlenecks have increased in the past with some new additions:

Hebbal Flyover being the latest one!

Re: when do you get home in the evening?

I started working for a European client since April of this year.

Right now, I reach the office by 11:30 AM & leave the office sharp at 8:30 PM.

That way I encounter less traffic, makes the commute less stressful.

Earlier, working for the usual IT companies, I used to maintain a strict 9-6 life.

Absolutely no stretching, no working late.

Re: when do you get home in the evening?

Lot of you working from noon/afternoon to night/latenight here. how come?

My hours used to be (once upon a time):
Start at: 7.15am (office bus) & reach work at Ecity before 8.30
Reach back at: 9:30pm or 10:15pm (office bus - depending on whether I took the bus at 8.30 or 9.30).
Traveling on my own - typically left home at 8am & reached by 9pm

For past 5 years:
Start: 8.30am & reach by 9:15am
Reach: 8.30pm (leave work by 7-7.30pm).

I just wonder why I worked soo much now :(

Re: when do you get home in the evening?

Lot of long hour workers here.
I'm in BD, so no fixed hours for me. Automatically signed in and out for the day unless on leave.
Now in a PSE, so on in-office days, its out at 5:50 pm, and for the first time in my life, the office is close enough to get home by 615.
Am loving this after 5 years of commuting between mayur vihar and Gurgaon.
