It is very tempting to do say a month or so of those hours a week, and voila, 383 LT1 time.

It depends on the week, and time of year. Average is 40. Fall/Winter time is when I work 80+ hours a week.

Yea, I am pretty sure, if I wanted to work 7 days a week, 12 hours a day, I could.

I am going to try and see how I can handle it, save some dinero, get motor, run 15s.

I forgot to include that the 80+ hours a week in the Fall/Winter is only weekdays. I dont work weekends :shock:

My hours are 9 to 4. I'm usually there 8:30 to 4:30, longer during April and May. Occasionally I take home work as well. But I also have a ton of vacation, including most of summer off. So although I do work about 40 hours each week, it's not all year round. So I voted less than 40. :)

My weeks are always a minimum of around 60 hours between the 2 jobs. But can be in the 75-80 range. I've had a few weeks when serious problems resulted in my having to work over 90 hours! normally followed by a few days of vacation to recover. Don't like those weeks too much.

Main job - 50hr week norm, when there are problems or major changes being done can go over 70.

PTJ - 15 to 35 hours a weekend between friday night thru sunday night.

40-45 paid hours at Island, plus I'm there another 12 hours saturday when I'm working and racing, so I don't actually get paid. During the seasons I'm working my photo job I generally work 4:30am-1pm, then 1p-7p at the track 5 days, then another 22 hrs on the weekend.

so i guess I vary from 40 to 94 hours/week, 7 days.. lol.

I get paid for 38.75 a week but usually put in 45-50 and that's no overtime because I'm salaried. Our workload has been ridiculous this year and I've only taken a 1/2 day off so far and I have over 40 availble. Don't push yourself too hard, people start making mistakes when exhaustion kicks in and you either end up having to do something over or you could injure yourself or someone else. And working 10+ hours a day doesn't leave much time to do the yardwork, play golf, go fishing, relax, work on the car(s). Shoot for 60 and see how hard it hits you.

Yea, I think I am going to shoot for Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday. 48 hours a week. School kills my work schedule.
