How many hours/week do you work?
-
Unscientific survey time - how many hours / week do you spend working? This would include paid or unpaid overtime, plus moonlighting. Taking time off to spend some time training does not count... Curious.

Normally around 45 but sometimes as low as 20. Highest noted are ca. 70 So, compared to some of you I do not work:)

Usually 37.5, sometimes an hour or two more but rarely more. My last pay rise (half the one I had the year before) says not to work longer than needed - I don't get paid overtime.
Never argue with an imbecile; they bring you down to their level, and beat you with experience.

After becoming a dad, my limit is 40, I've released a few things over the years, they more hours you do, it will never any more reward (unless you own the company), and my children are more important than the computer.

Not completely agreed as if you do hard work in planned fashion it will never be unnoticed. :)

About 60-70, on average. It really depends what I'm doing and how close to "the zone" I am.

Friend, listen to the wise old programmers. If you are salary, they are stealing from you. I'm not talking about the hour here and there, the emergency (true emergency) on the weekend. But I've learned that if they are not willing to pay you for your time, it isn't that important. Period. Do not ever forget you are in business.

40...I had the realization quite some time ago that there are more important things to do with my life that work myself to death. Jobs come and go. Never sacrifice your family on the altar of money.

Well put Charlie, I put a stupid amount of hours into work, when I was younger, as you get older (and wiser) you begin to realize that you are working for free - certainly not a good idea. And whats even worse, the longer you continue to work for free the more the company expects it.
