How many hours?….

Manchester/London

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!

"Paid employment no hours at all"

Currently 40 hours a week but sometimes slightly more.

After years of working 50-60 hour weeks I've no interest in being back in those sort of environments.

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

It varies, last year average was 70 hours a week. Some were shorter, some longer. 100 hour weeks happen now and again.

Unfortunate reality of being a business owner. It helps I enjoy what I do.

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

Self-employed and around 20-25 hours a week. Would never go back.

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 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

At the moment, 40.

When I start my new job, it’ll be a lot more. But I live alone, so I don’t have anyone to rush home to. So I don’t mind so much.
