Too many some times. Your brain is always thinking about work so that never stops. I guess I spend 12-14 hours a day on my science and work. However I enjoy it so I don’t count the hours.

I guess I would work 8-10h a day. Some days I work lots, some days less. It depends on what I am working on for that day really. The best thing about science is that I don’t have specific working hours – I can be flexible and start later or leave earlier if I need to.

On an average 10 hours at work but yes I do bring so called work back home but that is mostly reading and writing papers or editing write-ups from my students. But then I spend a lot of time traveling also and at that time nothing is fixed.

I like to think of work like a long distance run. You need to pace yourself so that you have enough energy and enthusiasm to tackle the path and reach the end. You need to enjoy it. Sometimes there is the occassional sprint which means some longer hours and these are only when you need to put in a special effort. I get into work at 8 am and leave about 5.30pm. I very rarely work in the evenings or at weekends but will if needed.

When I was working I would start at 8am and work until 4 or 5pm. However the thing about field work is that it depends on the weather and on what work has to be done on any given day. Sometimes we could be out harvesting a trial until 6 or 7pm and other days be finished by 2 or 3 =) it is a good way to work because you are always busy and not staring at the clock every five minutes waiting for it to hit 5pm =P The French have a secret to breaking up a long day; it’s a 3 course meal at lunch time with a glass of wine and coffee afterwards 😀
As a university student I am spending about 4-6 hours a day in lectures or tutorials and then a few more hours at night studying or doing assignments 😉
