Just wondering what you guys do in the way of hours per week. My average is 50-60, last week though, 72. My supervisor does in excess of 80-90 a week, but he is a work-a-holic, and he grumpy.

Just worked a 42hr week. Well on the payroll anyways. Probably closer to 45 really. Life is good when you don't have to pay bills. What you earn is what you keep lol. It's gonna suck big time when I move out.

I only do around 15-20 hours casual work now during the holidays, and when I go back to uni full time in about a month i'll only be doing about 10-15 hours casual. But I had a full time job for 7 months and i did around 40 hours a week then.

5 x 7.25hour days = 36.25hours
Well thats regular time I get paid for... If I do overtime, it has to be pre-approved or I have to be the oncall monkey, in which case I get 18hours extra pay in the week, + call outs which usually adds another 10 hours pay to the week. I prefer not to work more than what I can get paid for, but I work damn hard during that time.

This is a hard one for me to answer. I work in a remote location in a mine where I work 8 days on/ 6 off. In the 8 days that I am on, I work 88 hours ( 8 hours the first and last day, 12 hours on days 2-7). Then I get 6 off where I do nothing but hookers and hash!
Just kidding but I don't work during those 6 days, I play golf and ride my motorbike. I suppose I could work out the average! That would be 44 hours a week. : |

Supposed to 40 hours, plus there's overtime.
Usually average around 46. If on call it can be a lot more. Had one call out last week that I attended to at 10pm till 7am. Makes it hard to go to work all day at 8am again :( Not sure why I try and do overtime. The 'taxman' (tm) takes more than what its worth doing anyways......
