Left home today 7.30am, had dinner about 6.30pm, then just came in after a couple of hours preparation and maintenance ready for tomorrow, about 7.45pm. Typical working day, is around 8ish hours, give or take. Paperwork and maintenance adds on to that time.

leave house at just before 6.30am, get back 4.30pm

[AndyGG]

As long as it takes and the miss's allows

[Frankie Lawrence]

7.30-5 genrally but in the summers its more common to finish later

[arbogrunt]

up at 0530, leave at 0615 back in at 1800 sometimes 1900. I do about 2 hours driving a day to the company I do most of my work for, then 2 more in the company wagon to and from site. Most people in treework work pretty long hours. I am also working saturdays at the moment and rarely do less that 65 hours a week.

Anything from 7 -10 hrs a day 5 days a week some Saturdays when I need to

Then paper work, quotes, phone calls on top of that

 

I make a rule to spend Sunday with the Wife & Kids if I can

[odd_bird]

When I started up on my own I decided I was going to make it more of a lifestyle choice rather than about earning the dollars. I start at 07.30 and knock off ranges between 2 and 4pm. I don't stop for breaks but carry on working until the legs go to jelly. If the wife is working a saturday I'll probably do the same. Sunday I usually spend a little time catching up on accounts, invoices and quotes or I might pop out and have a look at a few jobs. In my previous job I worked 12 hours a day, sometimes 7 days a week and was expected to be on call (for no extra pay I might add) 365 days of the year, including holidays. If I didn't answer the phone, regardless of what time of night, a formal warning usual followed. If you're self employed the day doesn't stop when you finish trimming trees as there's always saws to repair, kit to maintain, people to ring etc as most of the guys will tell you.

Can't be that bad if you get enough time to come for a chat one here

Winter 05:00 till about 18:00/19:00

 

Summer 05:00 till 21:00/22:00. God I love long summer days!

 

Seven days a week. I'm climbing the walls if I get stuck inside for any reason.

[RobRainford]

i work from first light till dark, giving me 8 hour days for the past month or two, then i just stop at 6 in the summer if im still going by then.

 

But im always thinking about it, what do i need to sort, who do i need to phone etc.
