I should actually be working 8h a day, but most of it is spend not working. If I'm honest I'm probably working more like 3h a day even though I enjoy my job.

0.5 hours a day in average. I get nice pay for it. The beauty of support ๐Ÿคฃ

I do around 7-8.5 hours. But some of that is just socialising/chatting with people (I'm in software dev management). Lots of "Sooo... What's your perception of what's going on?" "Things going OK?" "Who do I need to talk to to smooth things over?" kinda stuff (the soft skills side of things). It is super rare to go above that unless there's an incident of some type or something goes totally pear shaped.

I used to do 10+ last job and despised it. Took a step down in pay for this role but so much less stress. Day ends, I log off and detach from it all.

Edit: Put per week, not per day...

  1. I haven't yet got another job at my level in my field.

I have a fairly workload intense job and I'm happy with my pay. Of my 8 hour day I work pretty much all of it aside from running to the bathroom etc.

Like 1-3 on average. Some days it can be all day but not often.

I think around 4-5 out of 6. I like the setup

I actually do about 4h of productive work a day and ~3h of meetings (some consider that work). There's always about an hour in a day where my brain is jelly. Wish I could take a nap in the afternoons like I did when we had WFH. I was more productive with an afternoon nap.
