7 and a half.

Being unemployed tends to be like that.

In an 8 hour day, I'd say probably 7 hours

The other hour probably bathroom trips, coffee/water breaks, occasional quick chats with coworkers throughout the day

I can't hit a full 8 hours actual work unless I do a 9 hour day.

Sometimes I have a shorter lunch break or try not to poop until I get home lol, so I can hit 8 hours quicker

Mostly 2-3 hours of an 8 hour day. Once a week I have to go in guns blazing for 5 straight hours of work in a 10 hour shift.

8 hours.

To many cameras around to not do my job

About 2.5 hours before lunch, then long 90 minute lunch, then maybe 3 hours. So I guess around 5.5 hours.

My job requires me to work 7h a day. When I am working from home I will probably work 6h-6.5h since I will take two 15 minute breaks but otherwise there is nothing to distract me. If I work from the office however that number easily drops to 4.5-5h since I will be interrupted all the time by various issues and also just take more breaks due to others taking them as well.

Edit: I don’t really know how it is to work from a hole, but I know how to work from home

Same. 3h or less usually. Love my colleagues, the work is fine. But the requirements are so low that I'm able to manage a startup during work hours 😌 #softwaredeveloper

I'm stuck in the food service industry, so I work 9hr days 5 days a week :) All gruelling and soul-sucking, of course!

too many and never enough

I'm a graduate student and it varies wildly. When I have to work on my dissertation and teach I definitely work a full 40 hours. Teaching alone takes a shit ton of your time.

I estimate about 4 or 5 hours of actual work per day. I'm a high level IT engineer. The rest of the time is just organization or resting my brain between difficult assignments.

I was previously an IT manager and averaged 11+ hours of work per day.

All 8 hours. It's a physical job, I'm on my feet all day, but it's one of the better ones I've had recently.

As a rad tech, I work as little as 3 hours to as much as 8-9 on my 10 hour shifts

My days vary, depends on the amount of clients. 6-10hrs and I am doing physical labor so its at maximum 10-15% downtime

I drive a forklift in a warehouse. I probably work 6.5-7 hours a day.

Sometimes 2, sometimes 12, avg is about 6 to 7. Meetings, email, and messaging are work.

I find 4 hours a day ideal (if I have to work at all) and 6 hours optimal.

Education in a Title 1 school. I'm contracted five days for eight hours, but I probably work more like ten hours with before school and after school activities and additional stipend duties I've taken on. You don't get much in the way for downtime between meetings, grading, and planning.

Weekends are my time. Non-negotiable.

Most days 4 or 5 hrs. Around 5% of the time, 12+ hrs.

8 hour day, I work 7.5 of that. As soon as I enter the yard I'm in work mode. I work in the city gardens. I'm not surrounded by too many distractions like computers, phones and friends because I'm outside on site and I keep the work conversations about work only. Less drama that way.

Usually between 3 and 4 but even that feels difficult to reach sometimes, even with fully remote and engaging work

referring to how much time working? or how much time I spend doing my job? I have no problem working in the garden or on the house – but having to do a job so I don’t starve or go homeless makes me a little resentful …
