Time you finish?
« on: February 27, 2009, 05:51:33 pm »
5pm is my usual latest; tho' to finish a house or two to complete an area I might rarely stretch to 6pm.
It's a game of three halves!

I try and work long days so I can take Fridays off, so in the summer I've been known to start at 5.30am and work thru to 6.30 am.
But not too often eh! ;)

I generally like to start 9ish and knock-off at 3ish..mind you I work most Saturdays until lunchtime.

It must be an age thing (51) but I find 6 hours graft (no breaks) is about as much as I can do these days ::)

I read somewhere that if you take a 5 min break after every hour, and an hour for lunch you can keep going for 11 or 12 hours.
I have found it works but only for 10 or 11 hours and then I am pretty knackered

That's only and hour, you must have some well priced work.
I had today off, why the hell do I always feel so guilty when I take a day off? I had had a good four days in, and I'm on my pension, but I feel as guilty as hell when I take a day off.

Normally when I fall asleep, working part time I would never get where I want to be.

Depends how late I start. Normally finish when I'm feeling knackered and can't wait to get home. 6hours is enough.Need the incentive to work hard to finsih early.

i tend to do 1 to 2-  8 plus hour days and then  usually.6-7 hours of hard graft.. only time i finish early is when i work  from early 7.30 am and dont stop for dinner so ive done a full day by 2-3 pm if ive worked hard... but i dont mind putting in the long days as then you get time off for friday etc and it might rain tomorrow is what i always think, so i try and work hard today so i am never caught out bad like this winter!!!!
