When I was a Sous I worked 13 hours a day, 6 days a week. Talk about burned out. My knees and feet still feel it.

Between work and school I'm bordering 70-80 hours in the kitchen a week on a regular week.  When there are special events or things going on at school, I'm bordering 90-100 hours a week.  But, hey, I'm young, my body still works, and I'm learning every step of the way so I find it worth it.

I am a Pastry Cook at a Production Bakery and I work anywhere from 8-14 hours a day... The amount of days I work varies as does the time. The establishment typically runs from 2:30am to 7:30pm. Anytime in bettween we have 2-10 employees working to get everything done.
