Today is my first day back at work (hello, syllabus, hand-outs and new students!), so how fitting that I should come across this chart that breaks down the average work hours for men and women around the globe. Are you a workaholic, friends? What do you do? What's your favorite job you've ever had? [HR Environmental Scan, via Flavorpill; click on the link to see the full chart]

wow, i always thought we (US) were the over worked. guess not! does that mean no more complaining???
i'm a realtor in jackson hole and i loooove my job. i have learned that some people can be c-r-a-z-y. especially people with $$$!
My friends in Asia, specifically Singapore and Hong Kong work such long hours due to more lax labor laws. I can't imagine.
I am a bit of a workaholic! this year I made the resolution of having more fun and worry less!
Love the blog re-design!looking pretty nice!
enjoy the rest of the week!
I work at a scrapbook store and I love it so much! We get to design cards and scrapbook pages when we have time :) And it's such a relaxing workplace. When at work, it really matters if the people are nice and atmosphere around you is stress free. It makes such a big difference to enjoying work!
I am sooo not a workaholic. I love sleep way too much haha. Have fun back at the office!
So glad to have found your blog, what a fun, inspiring place to visit!

Yes, a bit ;). I'm Portuguese :)
I am... that's why the job hunt is killing me because I really really want to get back to work!
I work A LOT. I get up at 5:30am every morning and commute into the city. I don't leave my office until atleast 6:00pm every night and then I spend an hour or so in traffic. I am also going to school for my Masters and I try to maintain some sort of social life. I'm a go-aholic as my friends say. I am always going going going.
at the moment my only job is being a college student, i'm a total workaholic at that though! gotta get all A's so i can get into medical school!
I work 4 10 hour days. I'm an environmental trainer. I have Friday's off. Thanks for posting this chart. This is truly interesting. I didn't know about these other countries.
