Dang and my mental state declines after 60. I cannot imagine doing more without my quality of work being a dumpster.

Yep. The max I had was maybe 80ish? Not fun

Apparently OP is too busy with the 110 hour week to respond. Or they passed out at their desk, either one

I’m betting money on the pass out at desk

Also tax. 100 hour weeks since August 15th - 9am until midnight, 15 hours a day 7 days a week. 100% WFH so I still get 7-8 hours of sleep which is better than the 4-5 it used to be when commuting. I run errands whenever there are team calls that I don’t need to speak on so no time wasted.

Maybe I’m built different but I’m not tired yet. Just looking forward to 2 months of doing nothing to wrap up the year.

Why?

I feel bad for your wife and glad you don’t have children. It’s not all year around so let’s calmer down over here. What’s your total hours for the the year in general?

Agreed I feel bad for her too. And yes it’s not all year round it’s usually only certain months where it’s this tier of rough (March/April & Aug/Sept). Was curious and checked, my PY hours charged hours as a M3 was 2036. Effective utilization of 117% and 436 above my goal hours.

Do you get to do that WFH or is it all in office?

Good for you for being given that option. I could not see working all those hours in the office. I get what most are saying in this bowl but for me, I highly value a work-life balance as you only get one life to live. I want to work and make good money but I don't want my career to be all about the money I make. As I read through various post by those working at big4 CPA firms, I'm so glad I don't work at any. To all, happy deadline week!! 😀

I do not miss those days. Had plenty of those weeks at PwC.

10/10 do not recomend SALT or AWM.

What is AVM?? What about Fiduciary Tax? That is my area of interest. Is that as stressful as some of the other tax areas? Just curious....

Why 110 hours? Why not hire two people that can work 55 hours in a week?
