Try to stay healthy. Make at least healthy-ish food choices, go to the gym when you can, shoot for 6 hours of sleep at least. Also work your butt off and don't waste too much time.

Get through it. That is all.

Don't work too much. Sleep is necessary. Go to the gym when you can.

How you setup your sleep schedule in the beginning will have an effect on you towards the end. Setting yourself up right in the beginning will make it better in a few weeks when things start to wear on you

Just quit now

Sounds like a lot of health related posts. Thanks. Definitely going to hit the gym and fit in some salads

My firm has a collections budget (80% of your billable rate x 1850 hours) and an hourly budget that must be met in order to be eligible for a bonus. The firm cares very little about originations and will reward someone for making their collections over someone who brings in new work. I missed my collection budget due to some odd timing with a client, but originated more than all my peers so no bonus for me. I’ve been at this same mid level firm for 9 years and it’s all I know. Is this normal??

Any tips? Dealing with resourcing issues for one of our largest clients. We have enough hours, just waiting for more experienced team members to be hired to complete it.

We’ve also borrowed from other teams, but it doesn’t cover up the fact we could be getting the work done faster with the right team. Advice for dealing with the client?

Partners or whomever can help me understand about billing and hours. To keep things simple, let’s say you only have one staff to work 1,700 billable hours a year on a $60k salary and you have only one job that and the rate charged to the client is $300/hour and an projected hours budget of 1,700 hours. So ideally you would have revenue of $510k. If the staff takes less time partners make less money and if they take more time partners make more money while the staff keeps the same salary?
