Re: POLL: How many hours a week do you work?
Entirely depends on the week… if I count my drive it would be even worse. This week I’m working 60 hours not including driving or work related meetings… 2 of them today.
Normally I’ve been working 48 hours + driving.

Re: POLL: How many hours a week do you work?
Not to be disruptive but I worked in academia for a salaried paycheck, not for profit. In short I was paid the same regardless of the hours. Nonetheless that job ranged from 63 to 80 hours a week dependent upon various committee sittings as well as the marking of papers in addition to class instruction time.

Re: POLL: How many hours a week do you work?
Good poll. Made me stop to think.
My day job can be any where from 42 hours to 50 and beyond. I have had weeks that topped 55+ already, back when the pandemic was in full swing. Side hustles/gigs may add another five hours to that, but that is work from home and don't mind it as much.

I haven't added up my hours worked in a while. As a business owner I don't usually have reason to track them. I work fewer hours in the winter, and probably do around 55 hours in the slower season and closer to 60-65 hours in the busy season (spring/summer).

I keep track of my time so I can bill a customer who wants to pay by the hour, and then discount a bunch of the charges so we can stay under their fixed budget.

Re: POLL: How many hours a week do you work?
I'm officially retired, but I average 30 - 40 hours of volunteer work a week for Seed of Hope Farm, a non-profit.
As most of the work is farming, I do more in the warmer months, but we are also constructing a greenhouse and I am secretary/treasurer.

Good for you. My wife has a distant cousin that is all of 90 and she still volunteers with the local homeless shelter. She has a passion for it.
