If I tell you that I have 30 years of work left to do.

During these 30 years, I will be working 44 weeks, for 40 hours a week.

How many Zeptoseconds will I work before I retire?

Roughly

1.9008 × 10 to the power of 29 zeptoseconds

1.9008 x 10^29

Now I didn’t calculate all the zeptoseconds you steal from the place you work to read this and probably other sites. And I’m not going to get into all the porn you might be watching

I would have prefered to see it as a full number, in order to be able to interpret it's magnitude better, my old rotten brain hardly computes powers'

You may gladly remove 50% from it, due to porn watching and other pointless reading during work days ;)

Ok so
1,900,800,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000

Now you want me to divide that by 2?

Leave me alone

1 million seconds is about 11 days.

1 billion seconds is roughly 31.5 years.
