I’m 3 months in and I billed 90 hours last week and people are still mad at me for not finishing over things. I sent SEVERAL “prioritization” emails. 75% of my associate team on my biggest case is out with the flu or for other unexpected reasons so I’m covering the work of 4(!!) associates.
This is how burn out happens. I get it now. I can barely keep my eyes open.
*edit: do you guys see that “over” (I meant other) typo? I’m leaving it because it exemplifies my point. Thank you
