i believe the longest i did without any breaks was about 20 hours... on a drilling rig, in the middle of nowhere, with mosquitoes going bzzzzzzzz in yr face most of the time... damn i wanted that day to end

Roughly 15....

Damn.. and I thought that was bad...


Although I was locked in a small conference room with new windows or A/C.. which made it seem like at least 24 hours..

the night of the NYC blackout, somewhere around 16 hours.

the blackout hit right as I was about to punch out. since I had been planning on taking the subway home, I was pretty much stuck there anyways, to I volunteered to help out on the docks, collecting cash from customers, since none of the registers would opperate.

we ended up staying out there until it became too dark to count money (post-midnight)
