Subject: Typical work hours
Written By: quirky_cat_girl on 07/06/07 at 8:55 am
So what are your typical work hours? I was just thinking about this and wondering who works the most out of all of us inthe00's members.
As for mine...I only work part-time right now, so I am usually at work about 3-4 nights a week. I average about 20 hours a week, give or take a few.

4 days a week, 6 and a half hours.
It's Sunday through Tuesday, and then Thursday.. all nights 4 P.M. to 10:30 P.M.
I also occasionally get called in.. I don't always go (it is optional), but sometimes I wind up going in a few other nights a week.

I'm supposed to work a 74 hour fortnight. There is a flexitime scheme so any extra I work i can take as a half or full day flexi leave. Generally though if I work extra one day I'll do a shorter day the next.

My regular job is 40 hrs a week Mon through Fri 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. and I am looking for a part-time job on top of that.
In the fall, I teach 1-2 classes which occur after work. This fall I will definitely have a 5:00 Tuesday class and I hope that my 6:00 (Tuesday) section will open up.
I work some of the national tests (ACT, PCAT, etc.) which take place on Saturday mornings. Those usually go 7:30 a.m. until 1 or 2 p.m.

I am a temp worker (for now, until I can get a permanent job), so I work maybe 2 or 3 days a week, for the typical 8am - 4pm
The last lengthy job I had, I worked as a temp for the Government for about 2 years, and there, I was on the night shift 4pm - 12am and I loved it.

I tend to set my own hours.
I'm basically expected to do at least 35 hours every week, but I usually find myself doing around 40.
The times I work has a lot to do with the people I need to see, I usually work on the weekend because a) I can get all of my paperwork done without having other people in the office, it's not that I dislike them, it's just I work better with nobody else around and b) Because if I tell people I work on the weekend, they never expect me to help out with anything. ;)
I usually work in the evenings because my job entails collecting information that is generally more accurate the later in the day I receive it, but sometimes if I happen to wake up really early I'll just go in some time in the morning.
Basically, I make sure that I show my face enough so that It seems like I work regular hours, but I do my best to avoid working at the same time as my co-workers. ;D

Monday thru Friday 8 hours per day 10am-6:30pm it's a great shift because I miss all the bad commute traffic and my 26 mile drive to work is smooth and stress free and it's scenic.

I work Monday through Friday, usually around 10am-6pm. I am actually a scheduled part-timer, but since I work on commission, they allow me to come in a little earlier than my scheduled time.

I get paid standard hours of 36.75 hours a week, but usually work about 45 I would estimate.
Our glorious government ( ::)) brought in things called workplace/certified agreements some years ago which enabled employers to do away with such concepts as paid overtime. Twits.
Travel to and from work is about 3 hours a day as well.

I work M, W, Th, Fr, & Sun 7-4, 7-3 and 7-2. They've been really picky about getting overtime, so any more than that has to be okayed by management, which doesn't happen very often. I hate working Sundays. I wish I had a mon. thru fri. job with weekends off. :(

About 15 hours per week between Thu & Sat. Sundays are off. Mondays to Wednesday I'm studying/slacking off.
15 hours pay ain't much, but on top of my Student Allowance (not much) it's not too bad.

I am in the federal government so I have flexitime hours.
I usually start work at 9.30ish and have an hour lunch and leave when I have finished whatever I am doing - anytime between 3.30 and 7pm. I have at least 2 days off each fortnight.
Travel time to work - 10 minute walk.
I have been on paid sick leave since mid May - havent decided when I will go back yet. Am recovering from fairly extensive surgery so it just depends on my healing times.
I am already hating daytime TV !!!!!!!!!!
