I'm in the U.S.

I have a a 35-hour work week. My hours are 9-5, which I hate.  I'd much rather work 8-4, like everyone else in my department.  My boss doesn't care and would gladly let me change hours, but her boss wants me here until 5.  So, I sit in a totally quiet office for an hour after everyone else has left.  Don't get me wrong, it's a great time to get stuff done without interruption, but I'd rather come in early and leave early, so that I still had time in the evenings to do stuff around the house.  I really function much better in the morning, so by that time of the day I'm pretty much doing filing and no-brainer type stuff.  No one comes in after 4 and no calls come in after 4, so the support I provide to the department during that hour is nil, except for my own tasks, of course.  I could easily work 8-4, without any hardship on the department at all.  But alas, I am stuck with it.
