I applied for a position where I currently work. Right now, I have it easy (from 8am to 3pm). I take classes in the late afternoon, unrelated to my work.
In my interview, one person asked about my current schedule. I (stupidly?) said that if the job was offered to me, I would probably be able to work regular hours, like 7 to 4.
Because of how far I live and my classes that I take, the best schedule that I could work out would be probably 7:30 to 3:30pm. It would take me about 1.5 hours commuting each way. I don't care about getting a lunch break (I am used to working thru lunch) and I have no problems working from home, responding to emails, etc. I do this already anyway.
The dept is close to offering me a position (per HR person). If/when they offer, can I try negotiating? People in dept work 7-4, 8-5, 7:30-4, a whole mixed bag. 7:30 to 3:30 would be"ideal" (not as great as now, but whatev). 7 to 3:30 would be okay...
