For some of us, we kind of make up off hours as we go. If it’s 2pm and I’m bored and I have no meetings, I might just take 3 hours off and go to the park or gym, and if a coworker has a question during that time, I don’t mind answering it.

I prefer to do things whenever I want to do them and not bother with “on” and “off” hours.



Exactly. It is nice for "flex-work"--go walk the dog or run some errands or something, but still be "semi-available" for questions, but not "at the computer".
