When I was a department manager in a supermarket chain, I had 40 hours plus 3 hours overtime built in (that means 43 hours per week). When I moved up to store manager, it was 5 days at 10 hours per day, but each day consisted of an hour lunch (so it equaled 45 hours per week). However, we were salaried...that meant that, quite often, I did 12 to 15 hour days. I probably worked about 55 to 60 hours a week.

Now that I'm corporate, life is a little different. I work 9-5, but I'm constantly being called at home. Probably do about 5 hous per day of work at home, for a total of about 75 hours per week.
