Salary? Hourly? You’re both!

I just need to vent a bit. I love my job. I help people. In most ways, my company is excellent. But. They have this recurring issue where they want to treat us as both salary and hourly. We're expected to be in the office 8 hours. But we also have obligations to continue working longer if necessary to get the work done. Bc we're salary. And professionals. This past spring hours had become an issue because the Director came down to check in and no one was in the office in our department. Now, we all work from home 2 days a week and have very flexible PTO. So we were told we needed to be there either 830 to 430 or 9 to 5. Okay. That's annoying cuz again, SALARY. But whatever. Last week the Director came down at 830 and only one or two people were there.…

But. They have this recurring issue where they want to treat us as both salary and hourly.

We're expected to be in the office 8 hours. But we also have obligations to continue working longer if necessary to get the work done. Bc we're salary. And professionals.

This past spring hours had become an issue because the Director came down to check in and no one was in the office in our department. Now, we all work from home 2 days a week and have very flexible PTO.

So we were told we needed to be there either 830 to 430 or 9 to 5.

Okay. That's annoying cuz again, SALARY. But whatever.

Last week the Director came down at 830 and only one or two people were there. Our supervisor came down at 9 and most of us were there.

I got an email a few days later “reminding” me that the expectation is 830 am. The email claimed that everyone was getting the reminder but pretty sure it was just me.

In what may or may not be related, I'm being moved to an office. That might seem like a good thing, but im really not happy about it. I like where im at. I like the people I work with. The office I'm moving too is apparently COLD, and I'm cold sensitive. They have no reason of knowing I hate being cold really. Where I'm at now is usually comfortable for me but warm for others. Most ppl would consider the office an upgrade.

Not sure what to do. I havent replied to the email re the hours yet bc I was busy and wanted to think.
