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.

45 is average. I find a 9 hour day is enough, particularly if i am in a support phase. Get me into a pure codeing phase though and I can crank it up a lot because I dont find design and coding tiring.

I work for a company that's a little out of the norm in this respect, in that the building is cleared out and locked at a very decent hour. Thus, no way to get much over 42-45 hours, even by working through your lunch. Don't we need more companies like this? Another interesting question would be, How many hours/week do you spend working on your own personal projects? Think that I'd be nearing at least 30 hours on this figure. Mitch

Oh, but I do!! I get time and a half for hours over the 38...so, overtime can be a useful wage supplement (boosted my take home by about 1/3 last year :-O)

About 60 hours a week with one full-time gig and a client with a windows application I wrote. This is about all the time I have. If I go over that, it cuts into my sleeping time, or I starve cuz I don't have time for food :)

90% of waking hours. Overtime? You don't get that in the games industry.

50 - 60 In the office 10 - 15 after the little 'un has gone to bed.
I'm never wrong, just occasionally misinformed.

I'd guess at around 90-95.

Lately, between 35 - 55 hours... depends on how urgent the work is and how focussed I am. But this time last year I was putting in 50-60 hour weeks quite regularly.

About 65-70 pretty regularly. I would happily work more, but I need sleep & food. Every now and again I find myself getting frustrated by real-world intrusions into my work. Things like having to get up and go to the toilet or answer the phone really annoy me.

9 to 10 hours a day, 20 days a month. So, up to 200 hours. But since i spend a lot of those hours writing messages on Code Project... :) Then I go home to my computer.

WOW! Ya'll make me feel inept at 55 to 60 hours a week, which does not include Wednesday afternoons playing golf after lunch and Saturday mornings , and playing around with my woodworking shop on weekends making my wife wood funiture, plus yard maintenance (mowing, pool, landscaping) and having supper ready for the wife and kids, except Wednesdays of course. Of course the wife who works about the same, does fill in with taking care of the kids extra activities, like dance and gymnastics... However, her and I do plan our time together, important you know. 90 hours...did that before I wanted fullfilling life. fla_golfr...
