I work 7am - 5pm Monday to Friday with an hour for lunch so I do 45 but I'm usually in work by 6.30am.

Also how long is your commute?

Mine is a 90 sec drive (I need my car for work during the day)

I work officially... 12-8 mtw. 10-6 th. 10-430 Fri. But I'm in debt so end up working on average 30 hrs extra a month to get by. So normally comw in on a Sat morning or a Sunday night shift like I did last night 4-12am. We get one hr break for an 8 hr shift.

I live in Croydon and work on old Kent Road. Tfl. Office based. An hr drive or I can use my free pass on the overground but that process will take an hr and a half. So I choose to drive mostly.

I work 7-3:30 (40 hours) a week and do as much OT as I can get although I can do that at home.

My commute all depends on Southern Rail to be honest. I live in Thornton Heath and work near Wembley. On a good day it's an hour there and an hour and a half back.

8am-4.45pm Monday to Friday, hour commute each way and I do zero overtime as otherwise I'd have no down time, especially now our busy period is starting. Already counting down the days to the Christmas shut down.

I have cut back to 3 days. Each day is about 10-12 hours.
As a full-time teacher I was doing 72-hour weeks and sometimes more, so I got out. I was fortunate in being mortgage-free etc so I had that choice. My commute was a 5 minute drive. Lunch was a time to eat a sandwich as I marked.I am content with my new life & all recognize the change for the better in me.

36 and a half. Part time so I can pick up the kids from school. I have an understanding boss.

 


In dog beers I’ve only had one.

Contracted for 35, normally do about 40 (no overtime), which is pretty cushy, but I do spend 1hr 45 getting in, and 2hr getting back, hence I work from home Monday and Tuesday (because I can)

Contracted to 37 hours a week - I usually work between 35 and 50, dependent on the workload (including working weekends). Usually around 40.

Don't take lunch most days.

Was doing 70+ hours a week during term time as a teacher. Became unsustainable needed time with the fam.

Still teach, but home tutor kids who aren't in mainstream for whatever. If there's no kids I don't get paid! Luckily works been steady and I average 20 to 30 hours a week. I've got time to drop my daughter off and pick her up from school.

Money's tight sometimes, but I'm so much more relaxed and happier that it's worth it.

Work to live not live to work.

How many hours do you work a week?

Does the OP really mean "how many hours do you work" or how many hours do you attend your place of work as there must be a hell of a difference judging by the volume of posts here during working hours

I'm happy to admit that I work for myself and don't work very hard putting in just a few hours a week but my wife is a staff nurse who works either three or four 12 hour shifts a week
