Depending on how busy I am 40-70 hours a week but I’m paid well so life is good.

Eh, my average day is about 830-730 so that’s averaging about 11 hours a day. I’m got weeks where I work 80 but those are only when big projects are due. I’m consistently working 55 though.

I’m in the last 10% of people to leave most days. I have a pretty amazing job and my career path has been an elevator lately so the hard work is worth it in my eyes.

The biggest challenge is I am completing a graduate degree while working so it makes for long, late evenings and no fun weekends.

I'm management so I don't get paid overtime. I usually show up anywhere from an hour to 30 minutes early and leave about 30 minutes to an hour late.

A couple of us floated the idea of working 4-10s to the CEO. His response was I get 5 tens out if you know, why would we do that? He thought it was funny. I did not.

8-5 M-F in an average week. Sometimes more than 8 hrs if we have a deadline. Days in the field have been up to 12 hours but that's not often.

Wouldn't mind 4-10s or 9-80s

Put in 68 this week normally between 50-60 while being on call 24/7.

We rotate weekend duty every 3rd weekend.

Straight Salary

I get pissy every time these threads pop up....

Minimum 4/10s, with regular overtime and forced fifth day. Just worked 13.5 hours today, 11, and 12 earlier this week. Probably 12 tomorrow. So, like 48 hours this week.

70-90 /week... Unless I'm at the VA..then it's 55-65/week. That's just in hospital time.

Usually in by 5-5:30 out somewhere between 6:30-8.

On call roughly every 4 days and One whole weekend(72h) a month.

If you were to factor the hours I'm "available' but not necessarily in hospital...my hours go.up dramatically.

It varies month to month. This month is mostly 7-5:30 with some 8, 14, and 24 hour nights/weekends peppered in. Some months a little longer, some a little shorter.
