I'm getting tired of working.

[lesa]

Please be careful and take time for yourself...you can easily burnout with that schedule. Continue your maintenance sex.

[anachronistic]

Take a vacation. That's what I did and I was working 12 hours a day 7 days a week.

[Jbleezyj]

what kind of job do you have?

[boobaa]

8 hours every day is not overtime. 10 hpours is, but it is just 2 hours. But yes, it depends what kind of work you do. So what kind of work do you do? Is it mind eating, or very physical hard work?

I remember pulling 12 hour shifts in a sawmill one summer. It was far away so it was plus another hour for driving. Very hard work, and mostly only 10 mins of break a day. It was really tiring.
But ofcourse most of the tiring comes from routine, when making overtime, if its some crappy job where you can't boil your blood.

I thought that most developed countries had restrictions to only allow a maximum of 6 working days a week. Guess not.

8 days every day is overtime in the United States. Anything over 40 hours in a 7 day work week, is over time (time and a half).

For our company, Sundays are double time if you worked on Saturday.

I work for a commercial electric company.

I'm an apprentice, so some of the work requires a lot of thought, but I wouldn't say mind numbing. It's also very physical, though not as physical as brick laying. I dunno, depends upon the day, and the work site. I was pouring sweat today crawling/crouching up in the roof of a warehouse.

The pool construction job I used to work was mind numbing, and laborious.

If they keep me at this new site, I'll be working 10 hours, for 6 days a week.

That's why you see the change from 8 to 10.

[Tone]

Just think about that paycheck.

[Illusional]

and the best part about this thread is... that you have decades more of this crap... work work work until you die.

At the new hosp im working at they give you time and a half for anything after 8 hours a day and they also offer you a 50 bonus for staying for 4 hours, 100 bucks for RN. Overtime is where we bank money.

Have to make money and I like making it.

I feel you on the tired part too man.

A lot of professional jobs don't pay overtime

My sister just finished a 120 hour work week if it makes you feel any better Fras

And that's one thing America can be proud of, we aren't pussies working pathetic 35 hour weeks

[shh!]

I don't care to work more than I need to.

In fact, I'm not even all that proud of it.
