For this reason, I have always hated the idea of “you have to do X number of hours a week and you are expected to do X number of hours a day.” I got this at every stuffy place I ever worked at…

I think Michael Scott was spot on. You get paid a lump sum per year regardless of how many hours you actually do. If anything, you should be measured on your performance, not the hours you worked. You should be measured by the success of your code, not how many lines it has. That’s the kind of work environment I prefer. Maybe that’s bad for people who are not self-motivated, but I know I am. I have to give mad props to Freewebs for being so flexible and letting people set their own schedules. It really does work.
