For the better part of the last decade, nearly every waking hour of San Francisco Deputy Sheriff Barry Bloom’s life was spent on the clock.

Bloom, a public safety monitor at San Francisco City Hall, was on duty an average of 95 hours a week since 2016, and more than 100 hours a week over the last two fiscal years, according to city data. His workload of late leaves roughly 10 hours a day remaining for sleeping, eating and just about anything else not tied to his job as a sheriff’s deputy.
