For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
I don't think I've had a 40-hr week since sometime in the
1980's. Even in cases where I've only spent 8-9 hrs a day
in the office, I usually ended up spending another hr or
so on email, phone messages, remote login work, etc., from
home. A 9-10 hr day is pretty much the standard here in
Silicon Valley, and we all just base our expected salary
ranges on the assumption that we'll be working it.

anything about working over 40 hours/week.
