Tax accountant. Summer months 32 hours a week. Tax season is 80+ from mid February to April 15. 9/15 deadline season is usually around 60. Tax planning season 50ish.

Scheduled to work 10hrs/day Mon-Thurs. However, we've had to come in almost every Friday this year and there is usually a couple days a week we stay late, so I would say it averages about 52-55hrs a week.

maybe 4-5 hours daily in the office or classroom, the rest is done from my couch. I deliberately don't keep a running tally.

OP, 47-50 hours a week isn't anything to bitch about. I have a friend working salary and 70+ hours per week.

Agreed, I've told my coworkers "plumbers work more than we do" as a way to put it in perspective. Not that I needed much reassuring, but the responses here REALLY put me at ease.

Police and Fire dispatcher/911 operator - past few months it's been 55-60 hours. But we're trying to hire a couple more to bring us back to a normal 40 work week. With any luck, we'll get back to 4-10 hour shifts. Those were the good days.

summer time
base hours are 40
on a fire you can pull 16 hours a day up to 14 straight before 2 required off
I have pulled the 14-2 off schedule for 2 straight months before

winter time depends, as a coffee shop manager I pull 10 hour days usually 5 days
through the holidays, weekends and when idiots get fired it go's up
pulling 12 straight days at 12 hours a day running a coffee shop at a ski resort during holiday has become normal for me

both seasons ramp up and down, keeps life interesting until I am year round with the forest circus

All they can get out of me for one low price.

I'm a tax accountant. 60-70 from Feb 1- April 15, then another 3 or so weeks of that in late August/early September. 40 the rest of the time. Our compensation is based on a 2300 hr work year.

45-50 depending on workload, we leave when we're done and some nights go longer than others. For a while I was working 60+, but apparently someone had an issue with that and decided I needed a days less pay...

Manual labor so easy a caveman could do it.

40. Used to be 50+. I'm salaried for 40. They were petty and docked my pay for two personal days when my mother and MIL were both terminally ill. I had three weeks of vacation available but hadn't accrued enough personal days. "It's in the handbook". This is a small business so it's not like they had corporate restraints. Haven't worked an hour of unpaid overtime since. It goes both ways.

Our pay period ends tomorrow (today, now). I'm pretty sure I'm actually going to have 87 hours this week.

I get to go home and sleep a few hours every night and then head back to work, feeling more tired than I did the day before. Seven days a week...

I'm on salary.

Large courier service. 40 hrs minimum. OT is always available. DOT limits us to 60 hrs. I can basically pick and choose how much OT I want any given week.

That all goes out the window at peak. Company gets waivers from DOT and it can be 70+ hrs.

Peak '13 was the worst in my 18 years. Worked 89 hours the final week.

I was salaried at Motorola for a few years and often worked more hours than that. But no OT so I didn't really keep track of the hours.
