People who work more than full time (40 hrs per week): how many hours extra do you work per week? why?

Question

Are you a classic 'workaholic', just love your job, or feel like you have to?

Answer 1

60 hours a week. Work on a hog farm and they cant take care of themselves.

Answer 2

I generally work a little over 42 hours per week. I am not a workaholic but I like to be sure that all the ends are tied up before I shut down for the day as I prefer to leave work at work

Answer 3

I work approx. 50-hours per week simply because that is what is required for my job.

I have been in the work force for over 35-years now and have always worked over 40-hours a week, again simply because this is what is required to do the job. And if you are salaried? There is no such thing as overtime.

Answer 4

I used to work between 60 and 75+ a week at my restaurant. I did love it even though it could be frustrating. I took work home with me, worked on stuff on my days off, and I did get that feeling of I had to, but that's because I owned the place. If I didn't do it, nobody else would for me.

Retirement's great!

Answer 5

The company I work for doesn't want to bring back people on lay off or hire anyone new so they just work the people they have more. Department that work overtime work anywhere from 5 - 20 hours over. And it written into our contract that we cannot refuse much of our overtime and never on Sat. so yes we have to

Answer 6

I work either 48 hours or 72 hours, without picking up extra shifts depending on the schedule. I work 24 hours on, 48 hours off.

Answer 7

not me but my man works from 6:30am till 7pm with a 20 or so min lunch-long enough to chow and smoke a cig!!!he does it because his company allows it,work is steady and he makes big $$$$with overtime-oh and saturday too!
he's crazy-but i'm a stay at home mom to a disabled baby,and i think he's just awesome and doin double duty since i can't.and we ain't broke by no means,he is just a good man who enjoys working!!!
