Posting this to find out what kind of workaholics we have in snow and mud and because I just broke my own personal record.This is working for a company other than your own,Im not done the month but am sitting at 308 right now with the rest of today and two more days.My goal is 320 which I will easily do because most regular people base a month salary on 160 hrs!
It also lets my friends know Im still alive LOL!
Keep this up and I see a new Pro Hillclimb in my future!

Ahh, a pitance compared to those of us who work for ourselves :)

By the way, 23 working days in March, that means you only have to average 13.9 hours a day and you can still take the weekends off.

If you notice how I wrote the thread,I also had my own company for 15 years and I realize and have likely been close too 500 but this is doing it working a 16 and 6 sched,I had 7 days off in March,thought I did pretty well considering
Guess 300 hrs makes me a wimp!
After 250 working for someone else its all street lights and dinner for conservatives,I wouldnt make a habit of it!

365.5 Hours in 30 days straight and still made it to church on sundays then started work at noon.

Plus if you wanted you could count the 22 hours I worked on my own ground bringing the total to 387.5 in the same 30 days
