I had the same thought. Are you really legally entitled to simply changing your working hours like that? Here in Scandinavia you probably are, but probably not in the US.
- db48x 6y agoIt greatly depends on the industry, the specific company, and the specific language of your employment contract. As an engineer I've never worked at any company that required a strict daily schedule and if any of my employers had tried to hold me to one I would have either quit on the spot or let them fire me, depending on my mood. A lot of my colleagues have been perfectly fine with a regular 9-5 schedule though; I value flexibility, but it's not everyone's first priority.
