Work hours per week

Recently, since I had started working as an online English Teacher, I realized that I haven't been getting day offs or if there is it's only for one day. Well the reason is I have to get enough working hours to increase the pay that I'm gonna get. When it gets to tiresome then I can actually reduce the no. of hours for a rest. How about you guys? How many hours do you work per week? What do you guys usually do in your free time?

I work as a writer for five to six hours a day and then I have to do my tasks as business proprietor for the next three to four hours. I usually spend my free time with workouts or with family

I usually have 5 days of work per day that's 9 hours a day. On my off I would just do shopping, house chores and sleeping. And I spare 4 hours for overtime if I'm really bored already.

I have an 8-5 job, but I've negotiated that I do my work from home. At first it was just like being still at the office. I have to log into my MSN at the start of office hours and constantly check my email for any developments in the work I do. But recently the setup was changed in which I have to finish the tasks I'm supposed to do for a week but I don't have to follow the 8-5 schedule as long as I complete the job within 40 hours. If I finish ahead of time, then I have those extra hours to do whatever I want to. And almost always I do finish my work with a whole day to spare, and this I use for my online earnings :)

I am a student, so I don't have a place to work, eventhough I would like to be able to pay for the rent, bils, etc. with the money I have earned, not the money from my parents. The reason I don't have a place to work is that nobody would like to hire anybody for a part-time job in my city, and I can not afford to cut classes to go to work. I make some money online, but this is far less than I would need. Anyways, I hope I will finish my studies, and then someone may employ me.
