Most hours you've worked in a week?


Recommended Posts

Posted

2 years ago, 3 of us worked on a car for 3 days straight. 2 of us were up at all times. Think the most each one slept was 3 hours at the most. this was after 6 days of 15-18 hour days, getting cars out for black bike rally in myrtle beach. I wouldnt doubt if I pulled 120 hours that week. It was so bad we had a bare metal repaint car, come back thursday out of the paint shop at noon on thursday, left the paint shop, no lights in it or anything, police escort to drive it and it was at the beach saturday morning..put all the interior, system, 4 tv's alarm, lift kit and wheels on it.

it sucked.....but the money was great

this was the car tuesday after we put the doors on it

110+..... harvest time on the farm!

Seeding now, hours are not quite as brutal but seeing 75-90 isnt uncommon.

Any time you have have a power wire next to your frame put some rubber hosing (or cut up an innertube) around it. The wire is bound to wiggle (due to driving or flex) and the casing will eventually wear through.

15 in a day isn't uncommon when you get into the proper working world.

I've had people see me at work at 7am and say "You're here early" to which I reply "No, I'm here late..."

Takes them a moment to work out that I've been at it all night.

Stupid computers.

hmm yeah.. Luckily I didn't go for a job at Maccas' because they don't shut. Still, at least we god discount for food. Will probably only last a few years before I get a decent job with good pay.

I feel for anyone who works nightshifts, they suck and ruin your sleep/play patttern :P
