No, you still need to put in 40 hours elsewhere. It only benefits if you're taking Friday off since you can take 6 PTO hours vs 8 if you did that every Friday during the summer you save 1.5 days of PTO. Mainly to let people feel okay leaving at 3

^K1, negatively or just the status quo

Consulting has jumpstart Friday?

Wouldn't you just bill a flat 40 as long as the work is getting done?

@K2, Everyone has jumpstart Friday. From the admins to MC and Strategy

Hadn’t noticed this sub before, and most of the threads are old so thought I’d ask a follow up - how has everyone been handling parenting with public accounting? I’ve got a toddler and my wife is an accountant (industry), and we only have a few immediate family in the country- but they have health concerns. Busy season was rough, things are looking better now as things return to normal. Still working crazy hours if you count the daycare duties on top of utilization targets.

Do you pay your credit cards in full every month?

I ask because I’ve let my credit spending get a bit lax since moving and adopting a puppy recently, so I haven’t been paying them off in full every month like I used to (though still well above the minimum payment, and keeping utilization at 30% or under). It got me thinking about how many people adhere to this advice.
