How many hours do you, or have you generally worked in a week?

How many hour do you work in week?

Me personally....about 50 to 60 hrs a week now...which has been going on for years.

I've been known to pull a few 84hr weeks....but those suck.

What's your average?

[Daca102090]

Paid, 40 to 64 a week depending on season. then 2 hours a day in commuting and 4 to 8 hours a week on the heavy unpaid (BOL & house) labor.

[ak474u]

40ish actual work, and about 4 hours a day commuting to appointments. I also have a seasonal job bidding Christmas lights, so that is a few hours a day + driving, then an hour or 4 at night making holsters.

Define "work". ;) I'm self employed & provide computer consultation & network support to about 30 local businesses as well as residential break/fix on a call basis. That keeps me running, on the average, 40-50 hrs a week. There are some weeks where that will rise exponentially & can turn into 60+ for short periods. I also help the SO with residential cleanings once or twice a month but that's only a few hours a pop. I also run a Jeep club with 120+ members & that consumes 5-10 hrs a week.

Between all that, maintaining a 1700 sqft house, three vehicles, a dog and LIFE... I'ma busy guy.

[bacpacker]

Paid for 40. Generally work 50+. Plus 6-10 hour drive time.

Lots better than the old job. I rarely hit less than 60 there and at times 80. Then they shut down and went to mexico.

[FL-Jeeper]

Then they shut down and went to mexico.

They way things are looking around here that sounds like a prudent idea.

used to rock the 84 hr weeks, but due to how taxes come out, i refuse to work anything more than 72

[Gunfixr]

Usually 45-50hrs a week, sometimes more, plus about 2hrs a day commuting.
Not paid by the hour, so a fair bit of that is unpaid.

[robsdak]

back in the day, 84 hrs. a week doing Industrial Electrical. now, 0hrs. retirement sucks...

[Willie51]

Haven't worked a 40 hours week since the 60s. Always 55 to 84 per week until a couple of years ago. Been self employed many years.

[AlphaTea]

Currently working 4-12s 1day-off. Work week varies 60 or 72 hours.
Federal regs wont let me work longer.

[Sniper-T]

35 hour work week, averaging 40 hours OT per week for the past 5 months. 2 hrs commute each day, and the rest of the daylight hours are spent working in the yard.
I try not to take work home for the weekends, but that doesn't always work out.

[Stormfeather]

Average is60 to 70 hours a week.

[Onestep]

Salaried - 45-50 hours a week plus 2 hours a day commute.

[RedJohn]

I have not counted it in hours for a long time. Right now, I work 6 and a half days a week. I usually switch my computer on at 8am and shut it down anywhere from midnight to 3am. I'll let you figure the total.

[High Lord Gomer]

What is this "work" you guys keep mentioning?

I pretend to work, they pretend to pay me.

Now I average a little more than 40. The summer between high school and college I had one job that was from 06:00-19:00 7 days a week and a second job that was 21:00-00:00 Sunday through Thursday for a total of 99 hours per week. I still managed to spend all of the money I made on those two nights per week that I had off. :)

[Grumpy Old Man]

Salaried GM, which means I'm a bargain before 8 a.m., after 5 p.m. and all weekend long.

[hank2222]

I guess i'm a lucky person at only 32 hours a week part time and three days off in a row during the summer months but it can change with 50 hours week during the winter time when the machine stops working and we are called in to help .

I travel for a big box chain and do diff things that they need from cleaning toliets to unloading a truck to making sure the milk is fresh that day .So my day can start at 10.pm and end at 12.noon some days

[realist]

I retired about three years ago. Now I just work part-time at a couple of jobs. One I work 35 to 40 hours per week, the other is averaging about 15 to 20 hours. Life is good

[GunnerMax]

From 40 to 120. Depends on what's going on

[Jimmy24]

Retired. 40hrs a week this point. Hoping to go to "0" at some point so I have some time to work on the BOL....;)
