How many hours does /biz/ work per week?

Musk says he does 120 and even one hour less is "not an option"

>spend all your time literally tweeting, taking vacations, making videos of yourself with flamethrowers, fucking Grimes and getting her to legally change her name after knowing her for 3 weeks. (doing this with a girl when you are only not working 6.5 hours per day 7x per week)
>also spend time watching all the news, keeping up with what is trending and building meme submarines that won't work out of FALCON HEAVY (TM) ROCKET TUBES and calling anyone who is on site saving children that points out the sub is too big.. a pedophile
>have Banks over to your house and let her watch you cry and beg the saudis for money all weekend

how many hours do you think he really works per week?

I work 120.1 Musk BTFO

[Anonymous No.10809494]

Officially 40, actually 1 because it's a government job

1h of work a week and my boss thinks I'm a top performer, inb4 he thinks I'm autistic and is being easy on me

The rest of the time I do whatever the fuck i want at work

Musk is a fat liar, no one works 120h a week, bet he works 60 MAX

[Anonymous No.10809512]

did about 100h a week for 9 month before I completely lost it.

I lack a lot of memory from that time because I slept 4-5 max per day and not even in one sitting, usually 2-3 hours twice sprinkled over the day whenever I just passed out from exhaustion.

Progress was insane (self employed maste race) but this is no way to live over a longer period of time, absolutely dreadful with zero life quality outside of business

All time medium

[Anonymous No.10810682]

Every time the topic of number of hours worked, almost nobody focuses on whether it's "time wasting", shallow or deep work (this only with respect to mental work).

If we're talking about deep work which requires 100% focus on complex things (e.g.: mathematics, programming, etc.), I believe 40 hours a week of this type of work is actually quite a fucking lot for a single week.

Now if we're talking about shallow work, which might involves emails, meetings, presentations, negotiating and other kinds of crap like this, I'd say about 70 hours of week of this is possible.

And I'm not even counting time spent browsing the internet, reading the news, catching up on LinkedIn/Twitter/Reddit, which is purely "butt in the seat" time but a vast majority of people also count that as "work" (let's call this "time wasting").

All jobs involve these three types of works, but it's usually the ones whose jobs mostly consist of shallow work and "time wasting" (say 80% or more) that mention working a ridiculous number of hours per week.

Without an agreeable definition on what counts as work, all this dick measuring contests of time worked during the week is fucking stupid.

he is doing 120 american work hours. Meaning that "working" isnt real work, he just kinda hangs out at the office and answers phones sometimes and talks to people every few hours.

[Anonymous No.10810771]

>>10810682
personally out of 43 hours a week:

deep: ~18 hours writing reports/programming
"shallow": ~6 hours reviewing, researching, business emails, setting up notes and bulletins, talking w/ coworkers on projects
physical intern shit: ~9 hours fixing shit and carrying equipment
wasting time: the rest = ~10 hours a week (5 day workweek)

im just an admin & research assistant

Given that this thread is somewhat work related:

I'm an electrical engineer and I'm really interested in working for what I would refer to as "privacy market". Stuff like crypto is one of my interests, but also in general anonymity, stuff like Tor, onion routing, etc. I wonder, could I make a living out of this? Any /biz/bros out there who could perhaps share some insight? I also don't live in the states so I don't have access to bigger companies, I'd kinda have to freelance my way through all this. Any bros that know anything about this segment of the market? Is this a child's fantasy? I feel like I'm wasting my talents at my current job, and it just hit me with the force of a thousand suns that my work in a sense will be my legacy, and I'd like it to be something that is closely tied to my strong ideals of morality.

Literally all of the startups pushing VPN stuff right now. You could look into one of those. Don't have any insight, but I see the same trend as probably being much more popular in the years to come. We've been lacking in the security/privacy sector for awhile and people are feeling that itch, it's about to hit full force soon - especially after the next bust. Just how I'm feeling things are going to go though. Best of luck to you bud.

typically just 40-50 is common, a few 60+ and every few years I get into the 80's

Life tends to suck if you go over 50/week and stay there for any real length of time.

Most relationships tend to get fucked up if you go into the 60's and stay there for more than a few weeks.
