I've had trouble finding a workplace that understood this. Even on the days where I put in 5-6 hours of high quality work I'd attract the suspicion of managers.

I've had trouble finding a workplace that understood this. Even on the days where I put in 5-6 hours of high quality work I'd attract the suspicion of managers.
After that they typically begin to "check on me" regularly to make sure I'm not "slacking." This would go on long-term.
I have never worked anywhere where this didn't happen.
