Do you turn your A/C when you won't be home for extended periods of time?

Like if you work upwards of 8 hours a day...

Wouldn't it be best to turn ac off?

Save money on electric bill..?

When away I have it run at a higher temp, like 78 or so. Shutting it down will only result in the compressor trying to fight the temperature back down and running constantly when turned on again. Drastic changes in humidity are also not good for the interior of a home.
