How energized and refreshed do you feel after a vacation? I’m coming back after a long one over the weekend and this is the first time I actually feel good at all. Usually it’s a disdain to head back to work, but this is my last day before heading back to work and I actually feel ready for it.

I know weird!! lol let’s see how long this lasts.

Haha not at all. I'm the same way you are usually, dreading the return to normalcy. I need to learn to change that type of thinking. I hope it lasts for you!!

Thanks for the hopes. So far, it’s been a good first day back. But tomorrow, I go into the office. 👀

I’m actually feeling really good. The caveat is that this is the first vacation in forever where I flat-out refused to work. I binged watched TV and ate dubious things and relaxed. Now I am definitely ready to work.

I love to see it. Keep that mentality of no work while on break. I need to do that. I made it all the way up until the airport when I was waiting on my return flight.

I work for a small firm (about 20 attorneys) and make 90k. I’m coming up for a raise discussion in a couple of months but don’t know how to go about it/what is reasonable to ask for. I bill about 35 hrs/week at 400/hr, so I think I deserve a bump, especially considering the posture of the market. Any advice/feedback from similarly situated associates or partners at similarly sized firms?
