My hours are also 7:30am - 4:00pm, with 1/2 hour for lunch. I tend to be in the office between 7:15 and 7:40am, depending on traffic and getting the little one to daycare, but rarely leave any earlier than 4:30pm. For the past month I've been here as late as 5:30pm after coming in at 7:00am, just trying to meet suspenses. No overtime, no comptime, nothing for these hours -- not even the appreciation of my supervisor. But at least I know the suspense is done and this is only for a limited time. For some work I'll be granted OT, which I request as comptime so I can use it for taking my baby to his well-baby appts and save my sick leave, but that has to be for extra projects that are not part of my daily work and has to be granted in advance which is hard to forecast sometimes. And my lunch? 9 times out of 10 I eat at my desk, so even that 30 minute break is a working one. I even use my 2 15 minute breaks a day to express for baby, and continue to work during that time too. They definitely get their money's worth during the day, which is why I put my foot down at taking work home or at working past 5:30pm (and having to pay extra for daycare).
