      "I usually work 40 hours a week except when I need to work overtime."

      Kevin's Feedback

      I have reworded slightly, for clarity and to exhibit your time management skills, and your ability to maintain a healthy work/life balance.
      "“On a typical day in my current role, I work a typical 40 hour work week. Occasionally, I’ll put in overtime, depending on the needs of the team. If I have only a little work left to do on a project, I’ll maybe stay a little late and shave off those hours before the week is done. But every day is the same. Whatever you need, I’m there and willing to help get it done. My motto is, just say the word.”"
