Back where I was working, I didn't have any control over the hours I'd work.

My boss used to show up around noon and he would leave before six...

One week (one rough week), I had to do some weird changes to my schedule. There were days in which I was the first to get to the company, and there were days in which I was the last one to leave.

However... there was a day in which I arrived after my boss and another in which I went home before him...

He assumed I would always get there just before he did and leave as soon as he did... and thus he called me to his office, for the reprehension.

Regardless of what I'd tell him, he would just not believe me...

From that day on, I started noting down my working hours (1). I'm not doing it for them. I'm doing it for me!

(1) - Oh, and as soon as I realized I was working *way* too many hours, I started working less; afterall, they weren't valuing me enough.
