I know standard test cycles typically pin mon/thurs but due to work I'm unable to pin Thursday. Would it be fine to say pin Monday afternoon & Friday afternoon? I'll be pinning 250mg test cyp twice a week.

Not sure what difference this would make but know it's important to keep times the same to not scramble hormones too much.

Shorty Answer - It's fine.

With all due respect and just with the interest of promoting critical thinking I would welcome any comments on why you (or anyone else) think "it's important to keep times the same to not scramble hormones too much" ? Or conversely why you don't.

Please note that I'm not calling you or anyone out but I'm interested in what is the reasoning behind why this has become the pervasive opinion. I can see multiple angles to it especially if only viewed superficially.
 
It’s not gunna make that big of a deal man. I’m a shift worker and try to keep to my mon/thurs schedule but it’s almost impossible and sometimes I’m pinning the whole amount once a week to different times on the Monday and Thursday. I wouldn’t stress too much over it man.
 
When pinning twice a week I always do Monday and Friday. And for no other reason than my memory is for shit so those 2 days are ingrained.

I assume the point of the conversation is the duration between shots and the total mgs per week and not the number of pins per week. I personally try to keep equal distance between shots. I do sun/wed. I have no science to back it up. Dorian says he always did short ester M/W/F no pins on the weekends. He said he found no difference between that and EOD as long as mg per week were the same

The world isn’t gonna come to and end if you pin like that.
For short esters everyone says EOD, I can only pin mon wed fri and it works for me. I don’t see any fluctuations doing it this way vs doing eod (did this for two cycle for comparison).

Some of the veterans might have a different opinion.

I miss days all the time due to last min schedule changes, as I always pin AM. With a long ester it wont make any difference. Even short wont matter for one day.

I pin Mon, Tues, Thurs, Fri... or Tues, Sat if cruising. Its a general guideline, not carved in stone.
 
Monday/Friday pinning is the exact same as Monday/Thurs.
Friday --> Monday = 3 days but Monday -->Friday = 4 days
Mon --> Thurs = 3 days but Thursday --> Monday = 4 days.

Its literally exactly the same. Stop thinking in terms of the name attached to the day.
