8 hours a day plus was on call each of those days. I was bonkers at the end.

Full-time school, full-time work.
Between the ages of 17 and 26, I did not have one day off. Or a sick day. Except when I had my kids - and I worked all day the day I had my oldest. I was out of work 3 days with each of them. I worked at a racetrack - animals don't understand the concept of a day off. :hi:

11. I technically have weekends off. |
|
But I have to take work home with me, so it really doesn't count.

I can count on doing work at home at least one of the weekend days. The other day is spent cleaning, doing laundry, all that other "good" stuff. I really need a vacation. Bad.

has been insane. I put in approximately 10 hour days, and yet I go in on Saturdays too. Soon to stop though. I'm salary, so I don't get paid. Right now I'm keeping track of my hours, and going to (ahem) insist on comp time. We'll see where that goes. :rofl:

13. I have two days off at my current job |
|
but my last one... not so much. I averaged six days a week, but then there was that month when the boss got himself arrested for drunk driving... seven days a week, minimum of 8 hours a day, averaged around 10. Got plenty of overtime that month.

After tonight, I'd have worked 24 out of the last 28 days. :grr:
