I did 700 hours in 40 days last year-
it put my little company on the map- but I nearly ended up in the hospital.
Dr. told me- “you know, there is a such thing as working yourself to death”
Not reccomended

Minimum of 84

I've made over 84 quite a few times.

I once worked about 75 hours in a row, no sleep, never left the building. shite hit the fan and I was unlucky to be one of the few who knew what was going on and it wan't even my project lol. When it ended, management wanted to put me in a hotel nearby and not drive. I said nah. Scary thing is that I nodded off a couple times while on the drive home.
I've also worked 100 hours in a week before. The worst is that I once worked 60-70 hours for 2-3 months which included every Friday evening to Saturday morning/afternoon.

I remember years ago I was working full time while in grad school and had three projects due in one week as well as a busier than normal work schedule. I am sure I slept at least a couple hours that week but I cannot imagine it was much more than that.

Two years into my "career" and I think I went over 50 twice, with the vast majority of weeks being right at 40. I put in way more work during college thanks to holding down a part time job during the semesters.

A little over 100 a handful of times. A bunch more in the mid 90’s.
Planted like 2300 acres of corn in a week one time working 15 hour days.
14 hour days are typical during harvest. One year we started picking corn and had a typical 5 or 6 days, then a hurricane started threatening so then we went 4 or 5 more days working 17 or 18 hours. That was rough. 2012 I think. Hurricane Isaac.
80-90 is average during planting and harvest. Average 70 when doing field work in the fall. 50-60 during the summer. It averages out though. I probably average 25 from about Thanksgiving to March.

7-10s0 right out of college at a job in Texas. Hated it thoroughly.

No BS - Worked a case writing briefs a few years back that had just about every filing deadline on a Friday. Federal court, so that just meant submitted via PACER before midnight on Friday.
Just about got into a routine of waking up Sunday AM, going through the day with family then heading into the office around 9PM. Would work until 6AM, come home, take kids to school, go back to the office, work to 6PM, come home, eat dinner, put kids to bed and go back to the office for 10PM--then do that consecutively on Tues, Wed, Thur, Fri--all the way to around 11:45PM Friday night when we'd submit everything to the court.
Maybe a 2 hour power nap sometime around Wednesday evening. Otherwise, I'd go straight through on zero sleep, cranking out hundreds of pages of research and the clients' final brief.
Never sat down and counted the hours, but that shite got old with the quickness. It also required a significant ingestion of Bolivian Marching Powder.
