Default Just how much do you give?

When it comes to work and your approach to working late (officially unpaid, but perhaps getting those hours in lieu or other benefits) to get things done, how much do you give?

I aim for option 3, but all too often end up with option 6, so that's what I voted for.

Having said that, some weeks I'm sure I work under the stated hours, so it probably balances out somewhat.

I don't do overtime. It's not that I won't, I just never need to.

On normal days I'd do my regular hours, 9-5.30, perhaps even get in 20 mins late and leave 15 mins early.

During a project I'll do whatever is needed. Last month I was doing 30 hours a week overtime for 2 weeks - Without pay

Record to date is 7am - 1pm the next day!

I didn't think your work was legally allowed to let you do that sort of thing

Probably not, it was an emergency rather than anything planned though.

I never do unpaid overtime but do a "moderate" amount of paid overtime each week and always do more as and when it is needed

This.

I refuse to do overtime unless it's paid - I work to live, not live to work.
