what kind of job can it be?
no phone call?

I put my headphones in (ETY) all day at work, and then listen for pleasure several nights a week. So I probably top out at about 50-60 hours a week. Unless I am testing equipment (which) I usualy am, then it is more.

Cheers,

My K701 are usually going 7:00 a.m.-3:15 p.m., M-F (my entire work week). At home I may catch an additional hour or two on the a/v rig.

Hah, well I'm at university training to be a dentist - I can't imagine they'd be allowed to listen to music while working - but really, whatever job you're doing - don't you need to devote your full concentration to it? Then, obviously, when you get free time, devote your full attention to your music.

But maybe I'm simply a typical non-multi-task compatible male...

I spend around 1~2 hours a day on the phone at work and another hour or so talking to co-workers. The rest of the time I am at the computer working on/testing/fixing systems (I am a Sr. Software Support Engineer). So that leaves me with 5~6 hours a day listening to music. I have no trouble concentrating and listening at the same time. In fact it allows me to block out everything else going on in the office and increases my focus on what I am doing.

Yeah, depends on how much work you’ve got to do..
In the holidays, it’s 14 hours a day, at the moment, it’s 14 hours a week, unfortunately.. Sometimes, I do have more time at the weekends at least.

Average, I’d say 30-40 a week.

Yes, my hours keep varying like that. However, I think I just don't spend enough time listening to music. Sometimes, I don't understand what I actually spend time on!

Hey 46+ers, stop messing up the normal distribution

 

[lisnalee]

I'd say about 2 hrs a day during work.

2/3hrs at night when i get home.

And 5-10 hrs at the weekend.

So around 30 hrs/week

 

[uraflit]

i listen basically whenever i'm at home... plus some portable listening that varies btw 0 to 4 hours a day...

~20 hours... a week

There's a nice gaussian curve going, but the 46+ mess it up.

 

[AJSgolf33]

My girlfriend is in med school and she likes her quiet, so i listen a LOT after work at night. probably 25-30 hrs a week.

 

[Mindless]

36-40 hours a week or more.

 

[rapzoo]

I try to get in an hour a day, but seldom am able to go much past an hour. Unfortunately, there are just too many other things that require my attention.

 

[DJGeorgeT]

112 hours/week or more
