Depends on the engagement. I leave at all sorts of times in tax. Rarely by 5:30 though. Senior

Back in the day, before USI, I never saw an SM there past 5. Managers and seniors worked late, never SMs. Now, SMs are there later than everyone it seems. 50 hours a week minimum 9 months of the year. SM, Tax.

I leave between 5:00 to 5:30 daily... but I start between 7:00 and 7:30. Manager. ITA.

I usually start around 9, prob stay on til 5 if I’m in the office/wfh. If I’m at a client, I would say I usually stay until at least 6:30-7:30 during normal hours and much later during peak hours. S2 FAAS

Earliest 6-6:30. Usually 7:30-8 though

3:45. I get in at 6 though

My Redfin agent recently quit with one day notice to start his own firm. He was the one behind my deal and did a lot of work and help with negotiation. However Redfin called me and said they put their top regional lead on transaction which is set to close in 10 days. I’m conflicted with what to do. As a buyer I know I can switch firms with seller’s consent and it won’t impact the deal, or will it? The agent said if I went with him he’s throw me an additional incentive to close with him.

Yet another friend/colleague got engaged this weekend. It’s become impossible to celebrate people’s relationships. I’m a POC woman and I’ve been single since coming to the US 10 yrs ago. A handful of men have been interested but they were not Christian or back in my country. So many childless, single women in my church and I’m terrified I’ll be them soon. My non-Christian family doesn’t understand why I’ll only date Christians, or the dating scene in big cities, so they put pressure on me

Are you paying for bridesmaid hair and make-up?

Maybe just cover one and they can do the other if they want? Don’t want to be rude if it’s expected but also don’t want to blow our budget… any perspective on the “norm” appreciated!
