Hi Thomas, I clock my 7.5 hour work day every day. When I arrive at work I punch in with f9-I which starts the clock on my default * Organization task then I pick something from the agenda, clock it in and work. In my setup clocking out moves the clock up one level in the tree or back to the * Organization task. This keeps time on projects and works great for me. I clock out at lunch (f9-O), clock back in after lunch (f9-I) and clock out at the end of the day when my daily clock report on the agenda hits 7.5 hours. I don't get paid for unauthorised overtime and I don't work for free :) I clock every minute of every day that I work minus lunch. If personal tasks interrupt work I clock those in with a new capture task and remove these from my daily work report (C-u R in the agenda will show a clock report using the current tag filter on the agenda). All the gory details for my setup are here: http://doc.norang.ca/org-mode.html Regards, Bernt
