It’s true. Everyone in the industry is being tasked to do more with less. Just remember we’re not saving any lives here as perspective, don’t burn yourself out, and keep your head up OP. As cliche as it sounds, good/hard work gets rewarded when it’s due.

People notice. But the truth is working hard/long is part of agency life.

I’m in FDD… I know I signed up for this but there’s something about the anxiety that comes on a Friday knowing that we still didn’t get access to VDR .. and how that anxiety grows as you enter the long weekend knowing that access can happen at any minute (or not) and you have to tippy-toe on the idea of potentially cancelling on your memorial weekend plans. I know the unpredictability of our job but phew 😮‍💨
