I’m at about 20 hours a week these days. I’ve got 3-1/2 days off this week, then next week off, then 4 days the following week, then another week off…then maybe a full week, but the following week, I gotta have off. Ohh yeah, lately the days are maybe 4 hours.

X…

P.S. I work 50-60 hours from March to November. 😉

i dont believe everyone who says they work 60 hrs a week plus school full time. pretty close to impossible, unless you just suck at school and get by w/ D’s.

i remember when i did the school/work combo thing… no life. work to school to home to sleep. repeat, every day.

I did this one for a while…  
Mon/Wed/Fri: school 8-1, then worked @ Whiting Door in Akron from 3:30pm-12am (many times 3:30pm-2am due to ot). Tues/thurs: Shure Fine (local grcery store) 5:30am-3pm, Whiting 3:30pm-12am (2am if OT). I went straight from one job to the other and slept like 20 min in my car.I would then sleep for a few hrs after work and go to school. Sat: Shurfine 5:30-4, unless I talked to my boss and he let me have OT at Whiting, then I worked 9am-2pm there then 3pm-9pm at the store. I pulled a 3.3 average taking 7 credits at ECC for the state EMT class working 2 fulltime jobs. I typically worked at Whiting door 44-46 hrs and Shure Fine 38-40hrs aweek. Thatwas hell! lol. But I LOVED pulling in the cash. I was making $12 an hr base pay at whiting ($18/hr OT) w/full bennies. $5.50/hr at Shurefine. Got sick of it after about a month and quit the store. Then worked at Whiting for another 4 months and got sick of theBS and left to be a Landscape foreman.
