How many hours do you typically work per week? Does 55 to 60 hours across 5 active account seem like a lot? This is my current experience and I am feeling the burn out immensely but wondering what others are experiencing.

That feels like a lot… I’d be burnt out too at that rate.

I’m usually the standard 40 hours but of course some weeks go to 45 if needed.
