I just think you're being extremely critical about a situation that you can't relate to. Maybe one day you'll need the flexibility to be able to adjust your work schedule, you never know.

Kids are probably the only thing. Can you think of something else in life outside of work that would allow for this?
And you assume wrong, she doesn't work the extra 30 minutes. Well she didn't on Thursday and she took Friday off.. we'll see what happens this week.

Don't you have to work flex hours within the core hours? For example, I can start at 7:30, 7:45, 8:00, 8:15 and 8:30 but no earlier or later than that.
