It may be more feasible if one is young, but working for 12 hours for long stretches can be grueling - depending on the type of work. One probably should take breaks every four hours, or three or two.Blackwinter said:Hi,

What do you mean? Are you looking for a job with that many hours? This does not belong in career guidance.Blackwinter said:Hi,

I get paid for 7 hours and have been working 12 h with the last vacation of 3 working days 1.5 years ago. I asked to get some of my vacation hours to be paid out in the form of education opportunities and the answer was "no, you're too expensive as it is". At the same time there is 30K left over on a grant, because I get paid less than what the government expects. So unfair
I do get a ton of vacation days, on paper. About 4 weeks a year + 1 week that can be kept from the previous year. Then the hours I'm supposed to work, but don't get income for: those are "paid out" in extra vacation hours. I guess that's about 6 weeks: 10 weeks total.lisab said:So much for the commonly-held belief that all Europeans get weeks and weeks of vacation each year.

It's important to take breaks throughout the day, even if they are short. Get up and stretch, take a walk outside, or do a quick activity to give your mind and body a break. Additionally, make sure to prioritize tasks and set realistic goals for the day to stay motivated.
It's crucial to set boundaries and communicate them with your team and manager. Make sure to schedule in time for self-care and activities outside of work. It's also important to disconnect from work and technology during your personal time.
Make sure to prioritize your physical and mental health. Get enough sleep, exercise regularly, and eat well. It's also important to take breaks and engage in activities that you enjoy outside of work. If you feel overwhelmed, don't be afraid to speak with your manager or seek professional help.
Start by identifying and eliminating any unnecessary tasks. It's also helpful to break down large tasks into smaller, more manageable ones. Prioritize your most important tasks and try to minimize distractions during your work time.
It's important to have open and honest communication with your team and manager about your workload and any concerns you have. Make sure to clearly communicate your needs and boundaries, and don't be afraid to ask for help or adjustments to your workload if needed.
