This reminds me of the old days when uni students had to pay their fees up
front, and so often worked all through the summer break. I heard recently
that the average uni student currently works 25 hours a week part-time to
support themselves.
I worked in a hamburger shop one summer and worked 11 of 14 shifts. I
worked at least one shift every day, totalled between 70 and 80 hours in a
week, yet had "a day off".
The day off was the 24 hours from 5pm Friday to 5pm Saturday!
These days, my working hours are much easier. To counter balance, I have a
wife and two kids.
