I've had an 8-5 schedule for some time now. But, while my schedule is 8-5, flexibility is also key and my boss has been very understanding. They key is getting my work done, and as long as I put in 40 hours, things are good. If I can't get 40 hours, I don’t have a problem using vacation time now and then.

Last year, I told my assigner when I was available, but that I could leave early occasionally. Then, I went and took some middle school games that start at 3:30 around here. This year, I dropped the middle school games and told my assigner that my availability is not restricted. I realized I was limiting him from giving me many varsity games since my availability restricted me to in-town games during the week. Since making the change, he's given me an out-of town Friday night varsity game next week. I'm lucky to have understanding management, though.
