works picked up now so im at about 60-70. it sucks i dont have any time to do anything. but i love my paychecks.
i was once told by one of my of chefs, "i work to live not live to work"
i wish i could live by that o well. but yeah how many hours do you guys work?
do you mean he said i live to work not i work to live? I think you said it backwards, that or 4/20 is getting to me haha. But during school months, depending on how much my boss likes me that week anywhere from 12-25 hours during the weekdays. But over the summer if I am doing roofing and construction I will work a solid 50-60 hours a week, but I get paid daily for that not hourly :( lol
Take the money while its there.Quote:

Take that shower kalspic....
I work front of the house... So like 30 hours a week? I can make damn good money too.
haha, i workout in the mornings. but i call it the birth control station. i know i wont be getting anything when i get off work.
it also lets me lower my standards. i can get with the dirty girls and not know if its me or her that smells
yea front of the house have it alright. you make way more money than we do and work less hours, but you get to deal with people so i call it a fair trade.
I call Flight Attendants Baristas -- mostly because it is a temporary job for a bunch of them. I called one a Stewardess a year ago and almost was slapped. It was a dude.Quote:

Zero. Work is for suckers.
Ugh. Ain't that the truth.Quote:

Never said anything about it again lol
^^^ thats a good one. ill have to remember that. but its kind of a career thing now. but the thought of changing it is in the back of my mind. just sucks having to be there all day and not see the sun. and now its so nice out i want to go to the beach and what not. sh!tty
80 to 110 hours a week!
Ah...dude, I wish. And the whole traveling public wish.Quote:

That´s why we have the old, worn out, sour hogs walking up the aisles, making u feel they are doing u a favor serving u a cup of coffee.
The age of the young pretty girls in tight uniforms are long gone.
A few Asian airlines still got it right. They have a max 5 years in service for Flight Attendants, and a max age of 29.
Needless to say, service is impeccable.
Virgin Atlantic has got it right..

in afghanistan, it's hard to say, since i really don't get time off. I'm either in the office (preferable) or in my room. So it's pretty non stop.
Back home, I typically work 60 hours a week. I've had jobs that regularly had me bustin for 100+ hours a week. Not that i'm counting or anything....
Unemployed :)
i couldnt imagine working 90-100 hours a week. my sanity and life would be gone. and just thinking if you had a family, what that would do to it. im all for hard work but i mean thats just a rediculous amount of hours. but i just got paid today and about sh!t my pants when i saw how much i made lol.
the responsible part of me wants to save it, but im about to be 21 so spending it is getting more tempting and sounds logical right now

The drive home is faster cause no traffic (30 mins) make dinner + meals for next day. hit my pillow at around 01:00-01:30. Yes i am a zombie during the week and yes i have a constant headache. i work 15-23 on the weekends as well but that is like off-time for me since i get to sleep 12 hrs

Hahaha im not a Gipsy bro!
Either way I prefer to contribute to society, not suck off it.
I think im one of the few people who thinks taxes should be raised lmao hahah.
ok, well easter is our busiest holiday of the year and we are very understaffed. so saturday i went in at 11:30am and got off at 2am then turned around and went back in at 7:15am and got off around 10:45pm. my feet are sore. that equals out to be around 30 hours in the past 2 days.
10 years ago I would work 90 hrs a week, but I dont need the headache lol. BTW I am a slacker, I hate working!!Quote:

The job is fine but the people in charge (supposedly) are so unorganized that the workers have to figure out the existing problems we have everyday and tell the supervisers what will work. They always take credit for it and then thank us for saving their butts. I usually lift at 2am nobody in the gym it's great.
sounds like alot of major companies, but a lot dont listen.Quote:

I may work alot of hours but I must mention that the 8 weeks of paid vacation,9 paid sick days, and great medical benefits make it worthwhile.
