I usually land around 60-70/week...6 or 7 days a week. The most I've ever pulled was 105hrs in 6 days while on tour...hooray for sleeping on road cases!

Seriously though, after a few weeks of doing 70hrs in 5 days, you're pretty much a lunchbox.

That doesn't include the hours I pull at the hostel on weekends/during shows.

Between 50-60 hours of work, and around 25-30 hours of school. It's getting to be a bit too much though.

you guys hiring? i don't mind moving to mtl.

i actually work 3-4h out of the 8h on a regular day which is the IT industry standard? but then again, i sometimes have 10h non-stop days that i actually enjoy.

i picked the 36-44h option.

+1

My days are usually 9 1/2 hours though, so around 47 hour weeks. I either have nothing to do because everything is working fine, or a day when everything goes wrong, like today! lol. Thank you IT.

How do you do this? That's 10 hours of work a day, including weekends. 24-10-6 = 8 hours a day for studying, eating, and whatever else random daily tasks that you have to do. You must be a model of time management and non-procrastination. I wish I could be like you.

I would not recommend my workplace to a buddy! The place sucks bad!

But there's plenty of IT jobs in Mtl if you're really intrested

I get paid salary (not by the hour), so if someone asked me to work OT I would tell them to go f*ck themselves.


I get paid for 40 hours but our boss lets us out fridays at 2-3pm because she wants to leave so bad before the awful commute/traffic home. I am perfectly fine with that and work about 37 hours
