I'm at work, average 96 hours a week, and have pulled down as many as 139 hours a week two weeks in a row... Such is the life of working offshore in a couple of the positions out here... Doing the math shows that there are not many hours in those weeks that I'm not working... Sometimes I absolutely hate running the stack... but... it pays the bills...
I missed Thanksgiving... but..... If the weather peeps take care of me I'll get home three days before Christmas... Working internationally, my routine schedule is 13 hours a day, 28 days straight, often working lots of "extra overtime" and then I get 28 days off... With travel it works out to 31 and 25 but who's counting....
