I survived three separate rounds of layoffs at my company, but my reward was having my target bonus entirely eliminated. The company claims that preserving head-count was their priority, so they stripped the variable comp from all senior accountants to avoid cutting more junior staff. This is a clear signal that the ship is sinking, right?

How many billable hours per week is considered at capacity? I’m getting pushback on boundaries I’m setting about additional matters and marketing work from my firm when I’ve been billing 60-75 hours per week for the last 6 weeks, and I’m still behind on my work. I feel like it’s reasonable to not kill myself further to fit in more/turn things around faster at this point, but am I being unreasonable? I expect my workload to remain at this level through the end of the year at least.

Has anyone seen or tried those anti-wrinkle straws? They kind of look like a hook but I was wondering if they actually helped or if they were simply gimmicked?

What’s the best way to deal with a partner that prefers working solo? For context, this writer I work with conceptualizes by himself, emails the Account team, gives deep input, and makes decisions for us without consulting with me (his “partner”) most of the time. While I appreciate his proactiveness, I feel excluded, limited, and without much room to co-lead the work with him. I don’t know how to bring this up without sounding like I’m b*tching about it.

My kids were really upset with me when I told them that my job as an engineer did not mean that I drove trains for a living
