How many hours do you work a day?

I have noticed all of us in the WV chapter are very busy. It must be a WV thing.

I would post more but I'm usually too tired. It seems all I do is work. I work two jobs, 8am to 1pm and 1:30 pm to 10:30pm Monday through Friday and at least 10 hours on SAT and some on most Sundays.

Is this normal? What about you guys?

Paid tourist, that is what I always considered myself when I drove. But then I have seen the entire USA at a high rate of speed, since I am a retired meat hauler. 6 or 7 thousand miles a week got old after 13 years.
Now I just take it easy and only work about 12 hours a day spinning in circles in an excavator digging dirt.

To tell the truth my work shift is 24 hrs in a row. But I only work 10 days a month or 121.5 days a year. Some weeks in only work 48 hrs and others I work 72!

Yea right, you are out in the garage hiding from the wife I bet. I almost came down to P'burg the other day to get some U bolts at Fleetpride so I could install my F350 Super Duty rear spacers. Thought about you and how I could holler at you if I did, but I decieded to wait for them to ship them up to the store here.
