[quote='[HP]I understand EQ point that you shouldn't crunch just because everyone is doing it, but I don't entirely agree with it. Live by the sword, die by the sword. If you stand beside your team during good and bad times, in the end it will pay off, management will notice your efforts and in the end you will be…
I average around 50 hours a week, but when I really want to finish what I'm working on, I sometimes push it to 60. I really enjoy what I do, so working the extra hours doesn't really bother me. But sometimes being the only FX Artist has moments. My wife says "Its not as bad as when you worked at ****b** " I know its rough…
hahaha some people just go nuts over "free stutt" as compensation. Perfect example. Ghandi in clone high asks a question to the extreme blue on the ingredients of the drink and the media says, "Excellent quesiton! here, have a tshirt." and ghandi replies. "AWESOME! That totally answered my question!" Anyways, if that is…
40-45 hrs a week. I might come in on the weekend for 4-6 hrs during crunch, but that's it man. Luckily the art teams I've been in have been well managed, so we didn't really experience any crunches.

Home life comes before work life. I only work to pay the bills. I slam my 40 hours and walk out of the studio. You can call me ungrateful or undedicated, but in the end, i hit my deadlines every time, and at the highest quality bar. My point is, you dont have to have a nerdgasm and live at your desk to be a great employee,…
Generally 45 and max at 50 on normal weeks. Not because I have too or anything but more because I love what I do and I totally enjoy working :) Crunch time is always different. I work until I feel I am not being productive anymore. No sense in working more hours if your not being productive. Might as well go home, relax,…
I work from 8 till 6pm... i could just work 8 hrs. but i like to put that extra time since people request lead attention during core hrs often. During crunch, the latest i have been here is till 9.30pm... so that is a 13 hr day. not bad for once in a while.. or closing to the end of the project. Anyways. where i used to…
