I am wondering if I am imagining things or not.
When I worked at my summer job, we typically had this type of shift written down on our sched: 9-5 11-7 12-8 etc. So you would spend a total of 8 hours at work, maybe 7 or 7 1/2 doing actual work, but 30 or 60 min for unpaid lunch.
At my work right now, last week, I worked till 7:30, it's a new sched for me. I assumed I'd come in for 11:00 or 11:30. I was formally told to come in at 10:30. I thought it was odd, but it seems they want their 8 solid hours of work from us, and we spend that 9th hour on lunch.
So I'm not sure if it's typical to spend 8 hours a day at work, or 9. *confused*
