Is it 'hard' working, or just working, as in' being there'. These are two different things.

55 hours a week, sometimes more. 28 days leave gives me 2552 total hours.
Them Koreans are lazy compared to me.
And I cycle 15miles a day to get to work and back at 95% effort.

Well I have just read and replied to this post during work hours . . . .

Average of 50 hours a week with 20days leave, so 2400hours, so 753 hours a year more than the average brit!

daviep - 24/5/12 at 05:20 PM

100 days x 12 hours = 1200 hours

No wonder I'm knackered

I reckon i do about 2700. Typically 55 hours a week, with 2 weeks off at crimbo and one off in sept for hols. What a mug

I'm really not sure working 55+ hours a week (especially if it's for someone else) is something to be especially proud of I wouldn't particularly want my epitaph to read 'He was at work....'!


bobthebuilder - 24/5/12 at 07:24 PM

i think i work far too much.
70 hours a week, 25 days hols brings it to 3290hours

What's work ?

3388 Hours - 1741 more than the UK average!

I generally work from 8am to 10pm most weekdays and then do lots more on weekends. Usually a 70-80 hour week for me. This year I've only had 1 day off.

The perils of owning your own business and having US clients!

It explains why the Velocity is still in the garage, un-taxed and un-used this year.
