I work a minimum of 50 hrs a week, somedays I feel like I do nothing,and other days I’m so completely exhausted from hiking the whole day. This past Sunday I worked from 7:30 am til midnight.

It’s up and down for me I end up being on call once a month
Our maintenance window is 2am-5am so I end up working weird shifts
But I enjoy what I do

I’m at work 43 hours a week, turn around 70-75 hours usually, sometimes more sometimes less.
I’m a tech at BMW and I work my ass off. I voted 9.

Well I’m not going to throw a number there because how many hours one works and how hard they work are 2 different things. I can only work 40 unless asked to work ot but I never slack off at work. I don’t work in an office either though. I’m constantly finishing stuff up and asking what’s next.(I’m union to,gasp)

Whatever a full time engineering student with no job counts as. I’m in class for 16hrs a week, and probably another ~10 hrs of homework, give or take a few.

M-F 7-5 sometimes a lot later. I usually bring a lot of work home, and end up working weekends a lot. I am a Project Manager/Estimator for a large site contractor, and if a bid is due, I need to do whatever it takes to get it done. There is no mercy on that lol. It sucks, but there are a lot of perks to the job.

I’d say an 8. Typically 60-70 hours per week including travel time which is spent on the phone. Mostly M-F, but a Saturday about every 6 weeks.
I’m a District Manager.

My work load is constantly changing and that is what I like about my job. I can pick and choose what bridges and buildings I want to design or redesign. I work 40hrs a week and never bring my work home. If I need to slow things down I just send out RFI’s.

Right now I’m working 20 hours a week, but I am constantly busy. I’d give myself a 5. I am open to finding another job as well.

hmm…40 hour weeks with one day a week from home where I do maybe an hour worth of work unless something comes up…moderate pace when im actually in the office. Then one 80-hour week evcery 3 months that always falls around a holiday and has all kinds of after-hours stuff.
so a 5 for 11 weeks, then a 10 for one. I’ll average that out to a 6.

You know I posted in here and my post is missing. Weird.
Anyhow. I’d say a 10 for sure because when I’m not working a regular 40 I’m working at my shop fixing cars, answering questions, giving labor times etc. Emails come to my phone so I’m never disconnected.
I don’t like it though, Life is about living, not working.
