How many hours per day or week do you and DH work?

madhatter2003 · March 2011

I work 40-45

DH is in grad school, so anywhere from 0-100 Stick out tongue Right now he is finishing up his dissertation to turn it in for publishing next week, so it's 100 it feels like.

mrsolsenk12 · March 2011

DH work 4 full days a week (9-10 hours a day) and 1/2 day from home (works 7-11am on Fridays).

I work p/t. Right now I work around 25 hours a week in 3 days (one weekday and Sat. & Sun.) I will be getting a promotion next month and so my hours will be changing. I will change to 3 weekday night a week (4-5 hours each evening) and then full days Sat. & Sun for a total of 30 hours.

LCB34 · March 2011

I work 25-26 hours a week (10 hours Tuesday/ Wednesday and then 6ish hours on Thursday).

Alex works an insane amount. Like 70+ hours a week.

schmoodle · March 2011

Now? I'm actually in the office 8.5-9 hours, 3 days a week, and work from home that same amount 1 day a week. My day "off" I probably work a couple hours. So total of about 36-40 hours. I'm on a reduced schedule and have limited availability because of pregnancy though. When I wasn't pregnant (but was still on a reduced schedule) it was at least 40 hours a week, often closer to 45-50 if busy. Before I had Toodle, it was 40-55 hours a week (probably 50 on average) but could hit 60 occasionally.

DH is pretty much 40 hours a week.

krissyh21 · March 2011

I work part time usually about 28-30 hours. H works about 50-60 hours.

CandT · March 2011

I work part time between 10-20 hours a week. I only have to leave the house part of the day 2/3 days and can work at home other days.

DH works too much. About 10-12 hours a day and some weekends. He keeps promising to slow down once we had kids but it hasn't happened yet.

KYRN · March 2011

I work 32 hours/week, M-Th.

DH is still off from is surgery (and will be until his next surgery which should be in a few weeks). He had been laid off for about 18months, he got called back part time for now he works F-M 8:30pm-6:30am, everyother weekend.

He should be full time with in the year so he'll be back to 40 hours schedule may be different but will be nights.

kme930 · March 2011

Before Will - 50-55 hours per week in the office (5 days a week), plus maybe 5 or so at home

Now - 40-45 hours per week in the office (still 5 days a week), plus 5-10 hours at home, as needed, after Will goes to bed.

ETA: DH used to regularly work 40 hours, but now that I work fewer hours, he commutes with me so he now works a little more.

muppet.fan · March 2011

40 hours a week at the office (but I hardly ever leave for lunch, so I'm actually in the office 9 hours a day). But I'm answering emails and doing work from home most evenings after E is in bed and on weekends, so it's actually more than that. Same with DH.

epphd · March 2011

Me: 40

DH:45 (rare) to 60. Probably averages 55 or so.

DH works about one hour a day more than I on most week days, and usually works a full day at least one day per weekend. I'm hopeful that when he gets tenure it will calm down, but not optimistic!

AuburnBride06 · March 2011

Me 40hrs/week, 5 days/week

DH: 4 10 hour days, M-Thursday. Sometimes he goes in on Fridays/weekends but not often. Emails from home on the weekends if he needs to.

sasa625 · March 2011

I work about 24 hours/week (3 days). DH works anywhere between 45-55 hours... he is in management so he's technically supposed to work 50, but that doesn't always happen.

gabbeyh · March 2011

I work 32 hours per week.

DH works 40.

LVBlvd · March 2011

I stay home. My husband works insane hours. Between 60-80/week. I would fall over and die if he showed up at home at 5. Or if he went all weekend without working.

ejgballerina · March 2011

I work 40 a week and then I log in from home each night after DS goes to bed and work another 2 or so on weeknights.

browneyedgrl4282 · March 2011

I am stay home mom but before I was pregnant with the twins, I worked about 60 plus hours a week.

DH now works a lot, no less than 55 hours but last week was over 80 hours! Thank god we have vacation next week!

GypsyEsq · March 2011

I try to bill at least 40 hours a week - that breaks down to working somewhere between 40-60. I'm at the office 9-6 daily at least and often work from home in the evenings or for a few hours on the weekend.

jds0521 · March 2011

I work 36-45 hours a week. I am on an alternate work schedule, so it basically equals 80 hours every 2 weeks. I work 9 - 9 hour days, 1 - 8 hour day & 1 day off every 2 weeks. I telework 1-2 times a week as well.

amberleeb · March 2011

I am a SAHM but before Audrina I worked 34 hours a week. DH works anywhere from 45-60 hours week. This summer when we move it will be much closer to 40 hours with double the pay (yes we are looking forward to August!)

b3bell · March 2011

I work right around 40-45 hours a week (sometimes more if the event I am planning taking place). DH works probably 50+.

duke'sgirl · March 2011

I am at the office 3 days a week, totaling 25.5 hours. I work from home some, but it's more returning emails that I can easily from the phone or doing stuff for my Stella & Dot business.

DH works M-F, around 40 hours, maybe a little more, but not much.

t.bird · March 2011

i work about 45 hours per week

the husband works 60 hours per week

futureMrs.Eanes · March 2011

I work around 40 hours a week. DH works 50-60.

LVBlvd:

This. Exactly!

Mouseygail · March 2011

DH and I are both generally 40 hrs/wk. I have been putting in more time at home though after DS goes to bed and starting to work through lunches. its going to be a very busy summer, i'm expecting to be at least at 45 hr/wk or higher through september.

Mr.&MrsS · March 2011

I work full time, about 40 hours per week. I have an agreement to work from home 2 days a week, but sometimes I am not able to do that. I would say I work from home about 5 days a month. Since I have work from home access I can (and do) log on when the kids are in bed as needed to finish things up.

DH is pretty much the same. He works full time, about 40 hours per week in the office. He also gets to work from home 1 day a week. But he actually works many more than 40 hours per week, he logs on once the boys are in bed almost every night.

kianew · March 2011

I currently work 16 hours per week. Lately DH has been working 10+ hours a day, 7 days a week, so over 70 hours a week for him.

Mrs.LisaP · March 2011

I work PT from home (we own a business) and usually work abot 15 hours per week. My DH literally works 7 days per week... prob. 80 hours.

laura1 · March 2011

I work, when averaged over the course of the month, 27 hours a week. I work 14 hour night shifts and some weekend shifts.

DH works on average 50+hours a week. Should be 40 hours, but he is constantly having to do more, and often doesn't get home until everyone is in bed Sad

AlissaCell701 · March 2011

I am a SHAM..

DH well it depends. In Season (football) he works 60 plus not including Game day which is usually a 12 plus hour day. Baseball season which we are gearing up for now..50 plus..Last weekend alone (he worked a normal 40 hours M-Thursday) and then he worked 32 hours for some stupid concernt..

THis is why I am a SHAM. The house would fall apart if I worked!

CMM05 · March 2011

I work part-time......around 25 hours a week. Although I'm a teacher, so really, I have work that I do at home all the time and I am e-mailing parents on days I am off.

DH works close to 60-70 hours a week

faithandhope13 · March 2011

me- 30

DH- 40-50

missyjg · March 2011

I work 35 hours a week... (8-3)

DH works shift work (fire fighter) so he averages 45-60 hours a week. Then he works PT for an ambulance service, on average, 15 hours a week. So basically, we never see him. He does work long stints then has 3-4 days off in a row to be with B.

mmttc · March 2011

I work about 12 hours a week and much less during the summer months. DH is about to take an early retirement so by May he will be working 0 hours a week. Hopefully we won't kill eachother with him being home so much more. (good thing we're selling our house and looking for a bigger one. LOL) he does have some part-time/contract work he'll continue to do and may actually do more of that. I'll probably work a bit more once he's home since babysitting won't be as much of an issue.

nicolita14w · March 2011

I'd say 40 each. I am on a MWF teaching schedule but most my work takes place outside the classroom (correcting, planning, office hrs, etc.). DH works a pretty traditional 9-5ish schedule.

sweetpea18 · March 2011

I work 40-50, depending on my patient caseload. Dh works 40-50. Him and his coworker rotate weekends, do some weeks it's 50hrs/6 days.

itsmevkb · March 2011

I work 40 hours a week but if you add in the commuting time then I can say that I'm gone from the house normally 7-5 or 5:30 Monday through Friday.

My husband works weird hours and his schedule changes each semester so it's really hard to say.

Kiki11 · March 2011

I work in a school so my day is roughly 8-3. So around 35 hours a week, except on weeks there are faculty meetings then it would be 36 hours. Wish it were MUCH less. My husband works 50-60 hours a week. He's gone from the house 6:30am-7:00 (or later) 5 days a week. And then he does a lot of work from home, too.

LucyPevensie · March 2011

I work 32 hours a week max - sometimes less. DH works 45 - 50.

m&m2006 · March 2011

i work 40, plus 2 hours every day for my total commute. dh works in the ER and does about ten 12 hour shifts a month.
