Wizz 11 Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 I was starting to work late everyday. I was getting fed up with it. So I decided to stop it. I now go home 6pm on most days and am enjoying my life better now. Link to post Share on other sites
KRUSTY 2 Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 My work day is usually based on 12 hours but I never usually work less than 14 hours minimum. This year my longest working day has been 32 hours straight and my biggest week has been 116 hours. Link to post Share on other sites

KRUSTY 2 Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 I work in the Film Industry. I work stupid hours but theres usually lots of down time between different films. Ive only worked for a total of about 12 weeks this year but its more finacially rewarding than if I worked an entire year in Japan. A lot more fun too although one day Ill get sick of it and move on to something else. Link to post Share on other sites

woywoy 0 Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 How important is it to work long hours and stay late??? Even in a foreign company ... You see some people working weekends etc. and most bosses are happy that these people are "working hard", rather than being unhappy that the "dont have a life". If you were someone's boss would you prefer to have your staff working until the wee hours or would you rather they have a life, work hard but not ridiculously hard, and be happy and not constantly tired?
