I work 12 hours a day.
3-5 days a week, depending on what I want to do.

I used to work 3-4 12hrs, now I work 5 8hr shifts. Both have advantages and disadvantages, I don't necessarily like one better.

Just went .8 so I work 4 eight hour shifts a week. The move to .8 is less money but with the kids out of school this week, it's tough to work nights and sleep days with them home all day. Bottom line is that I like to play with the kids on these care free summer days.

Three 12 hours shifts a week, plus a little here and there when they need me. I don't usually work more during the summer, just enjoy my days off! :)

I work WOW - two twelve hour shifts every Sat/Sun, get paid for 3. I am considered .6, but could work another shift to be a full timer for benefits (don't need benes because I'm on my husband's plans).

I work approx 5 x 13 hour shifts, but that's mainly out of choice. I can work as much or as little as I want. The money is too good not to work though.
I used to work 7 x 13 hour night shifts in a row and then take a week off but it damn near killed me!
