I recently acquired a janitorial position, which is about 60 hours a week. Fun. I have a job at the local market as well, which I love, which is about 10-16 hours per week.

On Sunday I get to dress up as Santa Claus and actually care what little kids want for x-mas. Fun.[LOL]

I'm going to reward myself by buying a Digitech Digital Delay pedal and a Dunlop Crybaby Wha pedal,for my guitars. Right now I just have a Digitech Hothead, but one isn't enough. :) thoight about a flanger, but I'll get more use out of the Crybaby.

In January I'm going to buy an AR-15 lower to start an M4 build. Stag lower with a Del-Ton parts kit.

I prefer, just 40, Few years back, I was doing an average of about 60 a week. A personal best/worst of 85 in one week, one that I never want to get close to again.

During school a busy week is 30 hours. Now that school's out, I'm gonna work my ass off. I worked 16 hours on Thursday alone. Usually works out to be around 40, but it's been close to or slightly over 50 a few times.

I work for the gubment so we're technically limited to 40 .. more times than not its closer to 45-50 in the office and the sky is the limit on the road.

Worst - 70-80 a week for six month, that was a Mutual fund company.. I've averaged 60 a week over the last 10 years. Being in IT sucks some times, even if the pay is good.

it ranges anywhere between 40-50 hours a week. i have the luxury of going to work anytime before 10am and leaving after 4pm, as long as i have 40 hrs for the week, they won't say anything.

About 8 hours a week, but I split it into 2 days. Don't want to overdo it.

I used to average about 50. Since I've been taking care of the wife at home, it's 40 at the office and more at home just to keep up.

Hmmm. Flying airplanes for Uncle Sam. Actual time spent flying in an average year? 500 hrs. Time so far? 7-8,000.

Time spent at the squadron or drop zone working in an average week? 50-60.

Time spent at work this past two weeks for our once every fine years HQ Inspection? 160-ish. Slept there a night or two. It was just easier than going home for two hours.

However, its still fun and the time goes fast most days.

Full time job is normally 3 12 hour shifts, but can pick up a 4th or 5th 12 hour shift every now and again.

Part time job, as many as I can get, sometimes it's 48-72 hours a week and sometimes it's 10, just all depends on what's available to pick up. Working a 24 hour shift starting 0700 tomorrow & that could be 24 hours or it could be more, just depending on what's going on.

Got to try and pay the bills so I can then get a few toys [Bang][Bang]
