It’s a company holiday. Plus, you know I’m on vacation. Stop emailing and texting me to do shit. You shouldn’t even be checking your email. Fucking workaholics — your work isn’t who you are. Live.

Curious as to how many deals at once is typical for a first year associate to take on (M&A, mostly private equity clients). Deal size is lower middle market and I’ve worked on deals ranging from $1-$110M. 2 deals at once is plenty for me, but it seems like my peers are able to take on more than that at once and still do fine. Maybe I’m just a slow learner/out of my league at the big law firm I’m at.
