I do the same thing but the exact textbook reverse opposite. Granted, I'm a techie / regular developer who makes 1/3rd of the IT director in cause, but can't complain, I'm definitely not starving.

>> Same document. Different optics.
>> If I send it at 3 AM, it looks like like I'm going above and beyond. If I send it at 8:47 AM, it looks normal work hours.
