Hooked up (no sex) with a coworker I've always had a thing for - he admitted he always did too. We know this is a bad idea but the tension when we see each other at work is unbelievable. Losing sleep.

What kind of a 'hooked up' was this if there was no sex?

Just have sex and see if its any good. Does not sound like its with a superior, so you cant really get in trouble.

Two things: 1) keep it discreet; 2) assume it's just a hookup to him. If that's okay with you, then game on. If you're catching feelings, RUN do not walk away.

Good luck!

100% agree with @EY1 with additional assumption of: assume you WILL catch feelings. So think about how you'll feel in the office every day after it goes south. Just sayin.

We're the same level and we don't work on the same projects at all. Does that make it ok?

how does one hook up without sex?

Be adults. Boundaries have already been crossed so there's little sense in going back. Talk with him over a couple beers. Express your feelings and concerns. Go with what feels right.

As long as you keep things discreet and don't get too touchy felt while at work, nothing wrong with dating a coworker.. just talk to each other and see where it takes you. If things get more serious, do report the relationship to HR. There's always the possibility that things will go south and get awkward but sound like you already don't work on many jobs together and things are only as awkward as you make them be.. and in the flip side things could work out great. Two of my former coworkers recently got married and are very happy

Looking for practical advice on improving my attitude to work.

So imagine an imaginary scale where 0 is the worst piece of work a studio could produce and 10 is the best possible outcome.

As an animator working in an agency, I normally end up involved in projects towards the end, so by the time I get my hands on a project I can add between 1 and 3 depending on how much effort I put in.

If a project is a 3 when I get it, how do I summon the energy to make it a 6 that I could to make a 7 a 10?

It's sad that public accounting is used as a stepping stone. It's a great job, but working 60-70 hours a week is not acceptable. Just because you did it (management) doesn't make it justifiable.

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?
