It should be a healthy balance. What is healthy will depend on your personality/character/health/family situation…

I am reevaluating priorities now that I have a steady partner and am ready to settle down and have kids. However, I am glad I chased salary in my 20s and was able to save for that down payment for the house. That doesn’t mean I now want to cut my salary in half for 2h less per day tho now tho (might change again once we have the kid and I spend 2h/day changing diapers).

Am I understanding utilization rate correctly? It’s chargeable time over total time? Charged 40 hours and had 10 hours non-charge so my utilization is 80%? If so, wouldn’t it benefit me to understate non-charge hours so my utilization is higher since they only really care about chargeable time anyways? Charge 40 hours still but only put 5 hours non-charge for utilization to be 89% instead of 80%? Or am I misunderstanding how utilization works?
