    I worked 11.2 hours yesterday. I usually average 9-10 hours a day and only get paid for 8...go figure. How many hours a day do you work on average?

        I should do 8 hours 24 a day, but usually it makes more. I'm excluding 1.30 hours comuting every day...

              I am supposed to be here for 7 hours 24 minutes a day. I am not sure how much of that can be counted as work.

                  Again, it is part time (I suppose there are other countries where it is allowed as well). :)

                  There's a vicious rumor going around that you only work part time. Is this true? That's just absurd. Oh, and I'd like to move to Italy too, can I come and stay with you? It's you or Silvio Berlusconi, from what I hear he throws better parties, but is a bit of a slob.

                    6 hours, to the minute. Today's the first day I didn't arrive exactly on the hour, just moved to my new apartment and misjudged the time it would take to get here, walked in a whole minute late. :laugh: Although school starts back up soon and I'll be down to 8-12 hours a week (plus maybe a second job TAing the intro C++ class).

                          I put in 9 to 10 hours a day at the office; anything that requires actual concentration and deep thought I do offsite, after hours, as the office is a madhouse. That's okay; being salaried, I can work all the free overtime I want! :sigh:

                            if I know a company has a policy to not pay overtime ( and there are some here in Canada), I only work the 8hrs. if they want to be that way, they have to offer up the incentive.

                              Yes, I believe I'm working part time. You should choose between me and Silvio:

                              • Silvio is a hard worker, I'm part time.
                              • Silvio, I believe, doesn't take personally care about his (many) children, I am an (almost) full time daddy for my two little beasts.
                              • Silvio sees a lot of beautiful girls while, I, unfortunately have to deal with a lot of ugly, elderly, male folks.

                              So it's up to you ('If I could, you know I would' choose 'money for nothing and chicks for free'). :-D

                                If it's true your boss is a genious and I want to meet him. Usually what is almost impossible is that workers work the hours they are paid for. Redoing what you where doing bad in the morning because you did not remember what you did yesterday should count as work? or working knowing that you are not concentrated and should probably be better to do a pause and work later (but you don't do it because you prefer to be at home a 5pm)? Unfortunatelly there are many cheats and good people have to pay for mistakes of others.

                                        I worked 11.2 hours yesterday. I usually average 9-10 hours a day and only get paid for 8...go figure. How many hours a day do you work on average?

                                        An avarage day for me is 7:00 am in the car (payment starts) and 21:00 - 21:30 back home (payment stops) I only cut like an hour a day for eating and i think i really use like 30-45 min. But my job isn't bad I do programming from siemens s7 to .net to c and c++ and some engineering in machine building that explains why there is to much work for me...

                                          I know what you mean. It pains me to think that I spend about 30 minutes a day total on this site, on company time. Yeah it's interspersed throughout the day but still, my company is paying me to bitch, complain, and laugh on some website that most of us have grown to love.

                                          This actually can be good for the company. Distracting yourself from work once in a while can make you more productive and it can also help you solve problems by moving away from it.
