I've recently been laid off from a decent office job - drudgery wise anyway, I actually got to help people but the pay sucked. It was a bummer but I kinda knew it was too good to be true, having a job where you feel good about what you do can't last. Been doing office work for 15 years and have yet to have one of those mythical 9-5 jobs. It's always been 8-5. And you usually have to come in early and stay late. Oh and there's constant "lunch meetings" so you get screwed out of that (and you have to bring your own lunch to the meetings). The hours at the last job were kinda different, 7:30 to 4:30. I usually went in just after 6:30 to get caught up if there were a lot of meetings (cuz you don't get work done during meetings) and would often stay till 5 or 5:30 rather than sit in traffic. BUT instead of overtime I got comp time and they were really cool about letting me use it, which is awesome if you have to take care of sick kids and still want enough time off left over to take a vacation.
