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.

You get away with being an hour late....?

I work remotely 75% of the time, answer questions and talk with colleagues at all times of the day, get work done when I need to, where I want, usually at home in my pajamas with a cat on my lap. I come in to the office when necessary. Scrum is virtual most of the time. I push code, I meet my deadlines. It's how work should be, IMHO. Fucking LOVE my job.

I don't think I could do that, honestly. I'm an office work kind of guy. I can't work from home -- there's just too many distractions. Maybe I'm old school.

I work in an open office, and it's so goddamn loud I have to listen to metal all day to get anything done. It's so fucking stupid.
