Hardest-Working US Cities
Here Are the Hardest-Working US Cities Alaska's Anchorage comes out on top, Detroit dead last https://www.newser.com/story/302836/...ss_world_login Work has been hard to come by during the pandemic, but Americans' work ethic in general remains strong. WalletHub wanted to find out which US cities have the hardest workers, and so the site looked at 116 of the country's biggest cities across nearly a dozen metrics in two main categories: direct work factors, which include everything from the average number of hours in a workweek and the employment rate, to the share of employees who let their vacation time go untouched; and indirect work factors, including average commute time, yearly volunteer hours per resident, and how much leisure time people build into their lives. Alaska's Anchorage came out on top, while Detroit could use a push. Read on for the top and bottom 10. Hardest-Working Cities: 1 Anchorage, AK 2 Cheyenne, WY 3 Virginia Beach, VA 4 Washington, DC 5 Irving, TX 6 San Francisco, CA 7 Austin, TX 8 Norfolk, VA 9 Corpus Christi, TX 10 Denver, CO Cities That Are Slacking 107 Fresno, CA 108 New Orleans, LA 109 San Bernardino, CA 110 Providence, RI 111 Bridgeport, CT 112 Cleveland, OH 113 Newark, NJ 114 Buffalo, NY 115 Burlington, VT 116 Detroit, MI Many Americans view hard work as the path to achieving the American Dream. We work so hard, in fact, that we put in more hours at our jobs than several other industrialized countries. The average U.S. worker puts in 1,779 hours per year – 135 hours more than the average in Japan, 241 more than the U.K. and 393 more than Germany. But some U.S. cities represent the strong work ethic that helped to build the world’s biggest economy better than others. In order to determine which cities outwork the rest of America, WalletHub compared the 116 largest cities across 11 key metrics. Our data set ranges from the employment rate to average weekly work hours to the share of workers with multiple jobs. https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/i...Xw8_g&usqp=CAU |

I have 456 billable hours in January/February 2021. I was supposed to be off today and the rest of the week, but will log two full days today and tomorrow. Wednesday I'm off limit.

It's the 22nd of February. 31+22 = 53 days. If you worked every single day that's 8.6 hours/day. If you only worked Mon-Fri that 37 working days. That's 12.3 hours/day. If you worked 6 days a week (Mon-Sat) that's 45 days. 10.1 Hours/day. Get back to me when you've worked a refinery turnaround or a refuel at a nuke. Then we can discuss hours worked. |

I am part of the DC workforce. I don’t make anything but words on paper, or more accurately, words in a digital environment. Sounds easy. It’s not.
