Mine is much shorter this year than last year, because I've made a concerted effort not to overwork. It has made me much happier with the rest of my life, but ironically, less happy with work.

It varies a lot, though; I have killer weeks when I work 10+ hours every day, and have really lame weeks when I spend 7-8 hours a day in lab, and far less than that productively.

At present, it's about 70-80 hours...

46 hours a week, since September 1998. On January 1999 I'll return to 50 hours a week... It's funny when, all Friday nights, at 1:30 more or less, I get asleep suddenly (yes, in the pub).

If you include work AND school, it's a lot.

Under 10 hours. No hours right now. I quit my job to go back to school in January. A history degree doesn't get very good jobs these days.

reality: you've been on salary for two days now and you're already complaining?

usually just over 40 (or at least that is what I get paid for)...
*jjg: I don't go on salary.. apparently people never have gone on salary.. it has always been the case that they don't. and btw, the test(certification) isn't a job requirement.. it never has been with this company... it may have been with the previous company... this and other BS available if you talk to my current supervisor..

It's really 35-45, but I picked on the low side.

I do about 40 now, I used to do more like 50 out of habit - I'd just stay at work. Now, I have a reason to leave (to go to the gym), so I do. I tend to work constantly while at work, so that's a solid 40.

* It pleases me greatly to see that the average is less than 40.

I'm now working on the Y2K project for my company. I expect my work week, like the days, to start getting longer as we go into 1999.

I switched jobs and took a pay cut in order to get my 32 hour work week.

40, but with a strange, variable journey.
