      On good days 7 to 8 hours. On very busy days up to 14 hours. (But that does not happen very often – maybe once a month max.)

      Depends on the day. I usually do 9am to 5.30pm . When on experiment it varies between noon to 3pm or 4am to 11pm (Whatever we need to do!)…. I do experiments for 2 weeks at a time and about 6 a year. I take time off before and after though!

      I work some weekends and take some weekdays off to compensate. My hours are flexible.

      well, I spend about 8 hours a day at work, then I will do other things like this for schools etc outside of work time. i like that I don’t have to work weekends though!
