    Wow. That's a lot of hours. I'd probably try it if I could, but I can't get a second job, and I only have 105 hours possible to work in a week.

    Oh and fitzy, I probably wont pregame, but I'll stick to pitchers of beer. I can get three of them for about $20, and that's enough beer to keep me going I believe.

    Before I had the kids, I worked outside the home at a family physicians' office and the most hours I put in were 40. Most of the time, not even that though. More like 37. [​IMG]

    My husband works around 50 hours a week. Sometimes less, sometimes more, depending on whether he's got some large bids going on (he's a contract sales manager/estimator). But he's usually home by 5:15-5:30 PM, rarely any later than that. If he has to put in more hours, he usually just gets up earlier in the morning and goes in then while we're still sleeping instead of having to work later in the evening and miss out on time with the kids and I.

    The most hours I have ever worked in a week is 96, and that is enough for me. I could handle more than that if I absolutely had to, but I would rather not. I make 9.00 too, but I make a commission as well. The thing is, the taxes taken out of the commission leaves me with not a whole hell of alot. M y average check for a 2 week period is about $800.00

    yep. I studied accounting for a long time, but I never focused on the advantages of using the tax brackets to your advantage. Now, I wish I had.

    26 or 27 hours, I believe, is the most I've worked in a week at $6.25 an hour. Give me a break, I work at a fast food joint that's only open for 10 hours a day and I get the good hours and I keep getting days off. I also am one of the highest paid people who work here in town. Sad, huh? I may have a bit of debt on me right now, but it's the best I can get here in town, and this week I get the worst two days off. I'm not complaining. But geezus fucking methusala, 100 hours? You'd better get online after you wake up from the coma you'll be in afterwards to let us know that you...well, survived said coma. Haha.
