How many hours a week does the average senator/representative work?

I cannot seem to find this information anywhere. To me, it seems like these idiots show up to "work" whenever the hell they want, take a break whenever the hell they want, and still get paid more than we doctors to represent their own views. Is it just me, or does anyone else out there think these self-elected officials "work" less than lifeguards?

They work anywhere from 100-110 days. In my opinion, the less they work the merrier.
