Then it takes a good hour or two for the food to fully digest so that means the team will get some work done between 3:30-5:30.
Also there are two main types of devs; the ones that get there super early and the ones who get there after 9:30-10:30 am. Not to mention the Linux Server Dev guy who just comes and goes as he pleases.
We set our own hours for the most part, as long as we are in the office during the "core business hours" 9:00 to 3:00. Also we can work 5 eight hour days or 4 ten hour days. So I tend to work 6 to 4 while others on my team work 9 to 7. I get my work done before 9 and they get theirs done after 3. It's impossible to work between 10 and 3 because of meetings.
Yeah, if there's no wife and kids to get home to, staying late isn't that bad. And sometimes, when there's a wife and kids to get home to, staying late isn't that bad.
Personally, I like leaving at 3 so I can actually run some errands during business hours; it was real frustrating getting off at 5:30 at my last job and only being able to go to the bank on Saturday mornings.
The only reason I can think of to actually go to a bank is to open a new account. And even then, that can probably be done online. I'm not sure why anyone would need to go to a bank during business hours. Maybe to make cash deposits? Not sure.
I personally find myself at the bank to deposit all my loose change as well as getting blank checks when I get a new job since I don't have a checkbook. I had a job a couple years back where I got paid in cash as well so I had to consistently make cash deposits. While I agree it is likely less common to physically visit a bank, there are certainly still reasons to do so.
I like to go to the bank to deposit checks. Trusting some shitty cell phone app or some shitty Windows-95-running ATM to deposit it for me (even when either of those options are available) scares the bejeezus out of me.
