I hate the hours I work, they're never the same and when I'm at work, I'm horny and when I get home I'm tired....I need to reverse the shifts apparently so I'm tired at work and horny at home

I work between 4 and 5 hours a day. Sometimes I work 8 - 12 (when I'm traveling), other times, I work 2 - 3 hours a day.

I've been thinking about bumping it up a half hour or so....but I just can't seem to find the motivation LOL.

I work Tues-Sat 6:30 am til everything is done...well, that's what it says on my schedule. My assistant actually gets there at 6:30 allowing me to stroll in at about 9:00...life is good when you're the boss.

As to why I work these hours...well, I am in a highly competive field and days are when it's all happening.

I am a shift worker, 8-8 usually three days, two off-three nights and so but every three weeks I get 9 days off which is an incredible break, they like to keep us destressed :) I love my shift. I am one of the lucky ones that have no problems with sleeping, no matter if I have been on a day shift or a night shift I can sleep after work with no problem, broad daylight, tv blaring. If I'm tired it doesn't make a diffrence.

i work 4 10's, th/fr/sa/su....2130 to 0730, i'm a vampire from way back when! my body clock has always been backwards from the rest of the worlds, sometimes the night shift makes it tough to have a social life, but for me, i'm MUCH better on the downhill side of sunrise! days and i DO NOT get along well at all! my body may be there at 0600, but my mind drives in around noon and joins me!

I'm self employed,. I usually wake up very very early,... at about the crack of noon,.. then I make the grueling 15 second commute to my workshop in the backyard. However when it comes to actual hours of work I can put in 10-15 a day depending on how many projects I have going. I love what I do so it really isn't like work at all to me. I'm nocturnal so usually I work during the wee hours of the night. No phone calls, no interruptions, and I get to listen to Coast to Coast AM every night. I love it.

Crikey, I do the stereotypical 8.30-5.30 Monday to Friday thing - I was surprised by how many people work differently to this.

Much strength to everyone working ridiculous hours

mostly M- F 8-4 ( I have flex time and I am salary) I love my job and my hours. I get to spend lots of time with the kids and I can take a day off here and there to travel to see Master.

Once I move in June, I will be working mainly from home.

8-5. Been doing it for a whole 3 days. Last gig, I went in somewhere from 3-6 am and basically worked until we got done, anywhere from 7-12 hours, and with a 44 mile one-way commute.

This is better.

I am pretty much on call, so whenever I am needed, I am there. Kind of sucks at times.

I am an 8-5, Monday thru Friday person now at my regular paying job. Would rather start earlier but it is not my choice. Unfortunately with a 1 hour minimum commute each way and overtime more days than not, it makes for some long long days. I am usually gone from home 12 hours a day.

The animal care, training, photography and writing gets fit in during lunches, early mornings, evenings and weekends.
