What’s weird about those hours?

Are you held to them? That’s weirder imo.
(I think I’m warped from a career in global tho. What are working hours even…)
Well, the emails don’t stop. So would look like a slacker if I shut off an hour early.
I’ve worked at agencies that were officially 9-5.

Don't normalize shitty work environments
My previous agency was 8:30-5:30 but most days I took a shorter lunch and signed off at 5. I now work at an agency with 9-6 hours and we’re expected to stick to them. I would much rather start a earlier and get out earlier.

Every agency I’ve worked at had official hours, but there wasn’t really an enforcement. I had an ACD who was weird about me coming in after 9 AM though.
9-6 is weird? Isn't that most agencies? Could I be getting out earlier?
Yes. You could.
Zimmerman 24/7.
there could not be any account at that agency worth working past maybe 2 or 3 for
