So, we're talking working hours or office hours?...
I'm self employed so my work hours vary, but generally I put in around 60 hours a week. I'm an idiot and I just can't stop myself
Some days I work for an hour, other days I work 14 to 16 hours. I generally put in 20-30 hours a week on average, but at the cost of being on call 24/7.
