Is it reflected in your yearly income?

    45-ish hours/week. Trying to get back down to 40. I'm salaried, so no, hours worked don't affect income. (Though if I wanted to work 20 hrs/wk that would probably be different.)

    2 - 30h. Not directly. More "things" ultimately lead to more money tho.

    84 hours a week, 2 weeks out of 4.

    Well it's cyclical for me for companies I work 60-80 hours a week then I live off savings for a while and work on personal projects about 42 hours a week, then I go back to work for the man.

    To answer whether it is reflected in my yearly income well it depends where I am working sometimes it's kind of just a salary based set up, sometimes I get per hour pay, I don't think any software engineer ever has gotten a time and a half for over time though.
