I’ve just finished on my latest contract and I worked out that on average I was working 68 hours a week over a 5 day week. No wonder I don’t get time for midweek meets!! Time for a rest now, get fit again and let the fun and naughty games begin!
So how many hours a week do you work? House wives and house husbands exempt as it’s a 24 hour job!  |

Depends as it’s a bit all over the place with 2 jobs. This week 50ish and next week will be over 60 as covering holidays buuuuut I’ve been trying to cut down. In december/start of January I was averaging 80 or so hours with a 90 hour week 
Buuuuut I am starting to reduce work and be a bit more balanced so hopefully things are looking a bit more up  |

I'm a single dad to a son who is 12. I work for a company called SAP. 45 hours a week I work. But also manage a under 13s football team and volunteer on a Monday at salford lads club. I training 6 till 7 and a match on a Saturday. It's bull shit when people moan or say its hard. Try being a single dad with 16 sons who have all difderent needs etc and being a top team. My Moro is dont moan do more |

I would do my job for free, but ffs don't tell my employer.
I'm in a sweet spot in my career. It's a gift. I work with young adults who have found their tribe. Art kids. I'm a lucky duck.
I don't count hours but being honest it's not a lot. No boss hanging over my shoulder and the lane ahead is joyful.
Lone parent with two kids. Thats 24/7 as you all well know. But that's not a job. That's me being fuping lucky |

Depends....
Contract says minimum 40, but I work in IT and if we have issues, or, like summer 2021, I was covering my boss' job, plus my project manager's job cos they selfishly had holidays, I was doing close to 100 hours a week!!!
So, usually 40, big projects can head towards 60 (especially close to deadlines), but can be more.
I'm getting too old for silly hours now though lol |

"I started at 10.30 Friday morning, I'll be finished at 04.00 thos morning 
Getting more and more of these days "
That's a hell of a shift!! Get some rest man.
My longest was 36 hours as a barman, but whilst restocking one if the hotel bars, with my boss, the door unexpectedly locked and became very thirsty.....
Next day was mother's day. That was a feckin rough few hours lol |

Yes King Charles (aka Charlie)…..or maybe you’ve just met Henry the EIGHTH…..the camera never lies with the eyes when the (Lemo)nade has just dropped off what you need  |

I work 18.5 hours per week. I am free to do as much overtime as I fancy, but usually no more than a couple of hours a week.
Having 3 young children does take up about 7 billion hours per week, so I'm not as time rich as I'd like  |
