Because of my job, I am on call quite literally twenty four hours a day. So, I am often woke up by phone calls at all hours of the night and day. But it happens and it's the career path I chose, so I'm ok with it.

Well...i dont think so...there are people in south korea and the gulf where the days starts at 6 AM and if their work forces them ...they have to be late at night too....a hardworking individual will work hard anywhere

Many of us are very busy, yes, and so many of us don't get enough sleep that a mattress company is now advertizing about getting a good *six*, meaning six hours of sleep, instead of 8. With the economy the way it is, it usually takes two incomes for a family to be able to survive so, after working all day...and don't forget the commute to and from work...there is dinner to get, cleaning up afterwards, spending time with the kids and taking some time to just relax. On the weekends there are things that we need to do and things that we want to do so our weekends can be just as hectic as the work week. I work full time and like to spend time with my family in the evenings so my day doesn't end until late and I usually average around six hours of sleep a night.
