    Honestly, my observation from friends of mine who work considerably longer hours than me is that while they do get more effective work time in than I, it is not that much more.

      It's a very big ice cube.

        At my last job, I used to work 45H (although 1 H per week was lunch break, so 40 really)

          variable... there are time when there is non-stop work, and times when it's meant to be easy... this year the easy part did not last too long though... but overall I think it works out a bit more than 50hr week...with European holidays... so we Euros work a few weeks less than our counterparts in Asia or US... if evened out it would mean less work per week on average, but I just put in 50hr+ avg for the weeks that I work (current total is about ~35 free working days a year including bank holidays).

              With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.

                Probably around 45-50 hours a week, but that is compensated for by loads of holidays.

                  40. No more.

                  I'm currently working at a non-union shop so in order to make time + 1/2 I'd have to work over 44 hrs. NO ****ING WAY!

                  If you want me to work OT, pay me ****ing OT wages douchebags.

                      Teacher, right?

                      I'm a student again, woohoo, so I don't work at all.

                          I start every day at 7am, leave sometime after 5pm. I take some work home with me sometimes (documents to write/review) and have a very bad habit of answering emails at all hours. Considering half my team works in India with 11.5 hours time difference, I send emails a lot. I'm not including the emails in the hours because they're usually a minute here or there.

                              If I don't get back to the India folks in the evening, they waste a whole day waiting around for a reply.

                                We merged with a German company a year ago, but fortunately the time zone difference hasn't mattered much - they don't write any code for us, and the code I write for them doesn't need immediate feedback e.g. "Here's Class1, I'm going to work on Class2 and Class3 while you review it"
