Over the years most of the jobs I have had (before starting to work for myself) worked five eight hour days. However, I had one that worked four 10's which was nice. My favorite was a company that had to run 24/7 so they split the week into two shifts. My shift was 6pm - 6am Sun, Mon and Tues and every other Weds. They paid overtime for anything over 10 hours per day or 40 hours per week. So on the short weeks I got 30 hours straight time and 6 hours of overtime and 4 days off. On the long weeks I got 34 hours straight time and 12 hours overtime. Those days can be long, but was almost like having a part time job.
