18 hours spraypainting advertisements outside in the winter time(I live in Canada, its cold)...I'll always remember that day because I came home from work feelin quite pissed but was relieved that my favourite basketball team(the Pacers) got into a malice at the Palace. I was so proud of Artest and the Pacers for dustin it up, it made that shitty work day seem well worth it

26 hours... and fuck that shit. lol I stripped and waxed the floors in a huge office building, and we had a deadline. It was when I worked for my uncle, and he didn't even pay me minimum wage. I was pretty pissed at the time. Other than that... I used to work 14-16 hours a day when I had two jobs. Good money and no life. haha

pretty sure you arent allowed to work longer than 16 hours in a row lol... your employers are shady as fuck lol

if you work 16+ hours then crash on the way home and end up in a life altering accident or something you could sue your employers for millions and millions. theyre responsible for putting you in a hazardous situation

Yeah I've been in food service my whole life I've heard of Hotel Banquet workers pulling crazy crazy shifts . Hey take a little cat nap & collect @ that point 100% is out the window your getting payed to get it done - just get it done . Working banquets is fun I've done it many times once dessert & coffee is served the light @ the end of the tunnel appears maybe down a glass of wine . job well done .

Probably 30 hours. We renovated our showroom and had customers coming. Had to work all night and pick up the customers in the morning. Got done just in time...

We drank some beers during the night and had some good music bumpin, so it wasn't that bad. Kinda passed out after the customers left though...

My employer paid for a motel room for me near the casino I went to go work at. But I didn't want to stay there. I just wanted to get home and into my own bed. Any time we have big moves like that, the casino always pays for a motel room for us.

I've worked 4 back to back shifts, having a 2-3 break in between each shift including a 15 minute break every 3 hours while on the clock.

Don't mind doing that if the job keeps me busy.

unless you work at walmart. i started at 3:30 am doing isle mods (rearranging isles) then went over to the fresh side, and in one department all the closers called in, and they said i could stay and close. so i didnt clock out until 11:30 pm. i took 3 half hour lunchs, so it was 18 and 1/2 hours payed. the other lame thing, is i was hurting for hours that week because previously i only had 19 hours for the week, so this brought me up to 30 something hours. lol
