DH works Monday through Friday 7am to anywhere to 5-6pm. Leaves about 6:45am and is usually home by 6pm. Back when DS1 was a baby he did a lot more overtime of a week night. He also works Saturdays 7am through to anywhere from 12pm. Saturdays can be flexible, if we have something on he is able to get the day off but a Saturday make a big difference to the pay packet.
With his mine work it's a 4 on, 4 off roster of day and night shift. So on Sunday he will start day shift, leave at 4.30am and get home at 7.30pm. Then he will have 4 days home so he will do his farm work and that can be around 8 am to whenever he's done enough for the day. When he's on nightshift he will levae home at 4.30pm and get home at 7.30am. It works out that he's only working his mine job 6 months of the year really, which is pretty good.
He works wednesday to monday, tuesday and wednesday are his days off usually. Always leaves home at 10am, then usually he will get home somewhere between 10pm and 1am, depending on what was on. He works every public holiday, every weekend. And quite often he will do a breakfast shift or two every week, so leaves home at 5:30am, will come home for an hr round 10:30-11am, then back to work til close.
We're about 10min drive from his work as well
Monday to friday leaves without fail no later than 7:30am, earliest ever home say 7pm, probably fifty percent of the time not home until say nine. Last night it was 1am.
Does probably an additional 10+ hours a week from home at night and weekends.
We live close to the city but it still is a 40-60 minute trip.
Usually he has two days off a week, sometimes that ends up being three, sometimes it's none.
The shifts aren't predictable, but his most common shift is 6am-2pm, or 2pm-10pm. There's also overnight (10pm-6am), and very rarely an 8-4 shift. On the first of every month he goes in the morning and says pretty much all day because he has to do "month end", whatever that is...
I'm so happy, he's had pretty much the past month off, and the owner told the store manager he can have an extra week if they could spare him
He works mon-fri 3pm-11pm. The hours and days really work for us, but he hates his job so hopefully he'll be out soon. We will sacrifice the awesome hours for him to be happier at work
My DH works monday - friday & 8.30 til 5pm. He leaves home around 8am and gets home between 5.30 - 6pm. He gets all weekends and public holidays off. He will have the odd night where he has to work late due to the travel in his job and the rare night away too.
Leaves home between 0700 and 0800 and home between 1800 and 2000 depending on how much work he has to do and also works for an asian company who forget time differnces and schedule meetings at crazy times for Australia as its still a normal time there.!
He only had to walk 5 mins to station travel 5 stations on the train and then a 5 min walk to work.
Works mon - fri used to do on call and weekends regularly, now very rarely does interstate and overseas travel regularly.
he runs a restaurant. service hours are 11.30-2.30 and 5.30-8.30 but hes normally in at 9.30 till about 8.30. with a few chances to pop home in the day as hes the boss. but really he never stops working. he had his first day off last week since august 23rd last year, by that i mean, it was an entire 24 hour period where he didnt set for in the kitchen/restaurant. whatever bank holidays/christmas etc etc people have off, they are his busiest days. he worked 12 hours a day...every day for 6 weeks over christmas.
DH is a school teacher so he never really 'finishes' working each day.
But, he's Monday to Friday, leaving home usually at 7am for an 8:20am start (his work is usually 65 mins drive during peak hour, non peak hour it's 40mins but he's ALWAYS hitting peak hour) and he finishes with students at 3pm, but sometimes stays behind to do work. If he stays behind till 3:30pm, he gets home around 5ish and if he doesn't, he's home at/around 4/4:15pm.
Having said that, he's making dinner when he gets home, then works once the kids are in bed and usually finishes at 11pm.
On the weekend, he spends up to 6-8 hours programming both days on the weekend, so I barely get much time with him (and neither do the kids)

Totally Unpredictable. Some day shifts, some night shifts, sometimes work from home ( brings ambulance home for on all shift) sometimes 5 mins from home, sometimes a hour from home. Sometimes in a car, sometimes on an ambulance motorbike. Then we could think he was finishing at 6pm, and end up on a big job and not get home for hours after that! Sucks because I can never commit to something such as a gym program as I never know if he will be home!
My DH usually leaves at around 7:30-8am unless he is travelling interstate and then he will leave it 5-6am. He will usually get back home 7:30pm-8pm and if he is travelling it can be the same time or later to 9pm. He has weekends off (his old jobs he used to have to don weekend work, so grateful that apart from the odd occasion he doesn't work weekends). He gets 4 weeks annual leave per year.
DP starts at 4.30am and can be home from 4pm onwards... (7-8pm). He is meant to work mon till fri but if they have a few late shifts he gets Fridays off. Sometimes asked to work sat but he turns them down and i don't blame him really considering he only gets about 5hrs sleep a night.
