How Many Hrs./Wk Do You Work (and what's your position)

Recommended Posts

Here is mine.

Job-Jet mechanic (Crew Leader)
Hours-40week scheduled, reality 50-60. Got 66 in this week and cannot go to work tommoro becuase my uncle sam says thats against the law. Plus on my slow weeks where I do 40hrs I do some under the table cash jobs for a couple FBO's
If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!

Federal regulations have placed limits on residents work hours to an average of 80/week over a 4 week period.



Thank God for that! I remember the days when the residents worked until they could no longer funtion.

Looking back ...
Paramedic - 24 on, 48 off
ER/ICU RN - 48 to plus overtime per week
Flight RN - 48 per week on base, much less actually flying missions.

NOW - Full time skydiver - Probably less than 5-6 hours per week of actual "work" .... go figure:P

I'm working 50 a week right now. This is voluntary for some extra cash.

I work as an International Exports Specialist for a very large tubular inspection company. Handling all the LCs (letters of credit) for inspection equipment. Mostly project work. When I'm not smothered in a project I help my co-worker with his hazardous coating materials shipments overseas. I also do general airfreight shipments to our locations around the world.


Damn that sounds pretty interesting doesn't it? Well a trained monkey could do it... :| Pay sucks, work environment is awesome. Plus I have no real pressure from my boss as long as there aren't any snags or problems he leaves me be. B|

105 hours a week, 15 hours a day for 14 days, sometimes 21 days straight.

Well, get paid for 15 hours, don't always do 15 hours.

Offshore inspector/Rope Access Technician.

Sounds bad but get 6months a year off so it's worth it.

I am a science graduate "student" technically, which just means they can pay me crappy money and work me into the ground. Contract says I work minimum 38 hours a week, in reality to meet deadlines I work about 50-60.

But I graduate in a year, yay me! I am actually looking forward to writing my thesis because it means I get to escape the bench.

When I'm behaving never less than 60 (6-6). That said, the Army is fairly liberal when you need to take care of business. Most of us stay close to work during lunch but when necessary we're allowed to take off at any time to take care of personal stuff.:)
