Just last month, I worked 18 hour days Thurs-Sun, plus my usual 8 hour days Mon-Wed, so I guess it would be 96 hours in a week

Good thing I'm salary and saw no benefit to that AT ALL.

143hrs in 7 days! I was stuck on location on a job with no relief getting paid 24hrs a day for 6 days before relief came to start our 24hr on 24hr off rotation. Was a long week! Lucky my job allows us to catch naps from time to time. Washing with baby wipes sucked though. Glad it was winter we didn't sweat.

The longest stretch was 24 hours a day for approximately 7 or 8 months, can't remember exactly anymore. I would work 8:30 to 4:30 in the office and then go on call from 4:30 to 8:30 in the morning, and then the weekends started at 4:30 Friday and ended Monday morning at 8:30 for me to start my work week in the office. I finally had enough and gave up the on call position as it was totally killing me
