When Does Your week Start?

I suppose to a certain extent it depends on the industry you work in.

Many manufacturers work from Monday to Friday so their working week starts on a Monday. I have had many jobs where I have worked six days out of seven. This included working Sundays.

There are of course many jobs that include working a seven-day week. Police, fire, nurses, doctors, shop workers, bar staff, restaurant staff, to name but a few. In fact there are many workers who face working a pattern that includes Sundays.

Ever since I was a service engineer working on Juke boxes and fruit machines my working week started on a Sunday. Then as a driving instructor I worked a seven-day week again my week started on a Sunday.

It was only when I started work as a driving examiner my working week went back to starting on a Monday. Now I am retired everyday is the same except Sundays when I go to church, so again my week starts on a Sunday.


How about your working week. When does your week start?

It depends, sometimes I will work seven days a week, but in reality, I never stop working, I have an independent business and it is hard to figure out when you have to take a day off.
Jacqueline

Yes, I agree Jacqueline. The only day that is really different for me is Sunday, and so that is when I start my week.

Derek

Like you, I am retired and every day is the same but now that I am a part of WA I am researching topics checking around the website and so on so my week start is every day

I agree Ruthlyn, many of us work every day but I still like to think my week starts with a Sunday church service.

Derek

Whenever I want...one of the pleasures of online work.
Debbie

It certainly is Debbie. I do find because I am building my business I am working seven days though.

Derek

Yes, I find it so interesting that self employed people who want more freedom and time for family often spend more time working than the ones who have "jobs".

Yes Debbie, a sort of contradiction really.

Derek

Every Day

You are like many of us Brad. If there was an eighth day in the week we would be working that as well.

Derek

I work six solid days a week on WA currently. I believe you should rest one day a week to recharge your body and mind.

While I agree you should rest Robin I consider my social activity time as rest, and so my WA work is spread over seven days.

Derek

At my regular job my week starts Monday morning. For my on line biz.. it is usually 10 a.m. till 2 pm Monday_Friday. Weekends are until I get my "to do" list done. And another one made for the new week.

Like many of us you are busy seven days a week Marcia.

Derek

My work week starts on a Monday and ends on a Friday. Conventional. Spend a lot of my spare time working on WA, although it doesn't seem as much like work as my other job. Tom

As I class WA my full-time job I include that in my working week.

Derek

Thanks for sharing, Derek.

You're welcome Roger.

Derek

Interesting thought. I used to work at a job that was 24/7 for days, then I’d take a few days off, so my week never really started or ended.
Now I work Mon/Tue, have Wed off, work Thur/Fri, and have the weekend off. I like that!
KyleAnn

Thanks for your comments KyleAnn. I must admit I work my business seven days a week at the moment, but my week starts with church on a Sunday morning.

Derek

I do work on my biz every day :)

Like many of us Vicki. I have an active social life so I have to work my business most days in some respects, even if it is only doing the email.
