Anyone working 40 hour weeks lately?

So I'm at a small office for an EB (Tech M&A) and my roommate is at a MM (also Tech), and a friend in HCIT in another city. We've all had a couple weeks since starting that were busy, recently has been very slow. Honestly feels strange, I'm always expecting work but there doesn't seem like there's a ton of market activity in M&A right now, lots of folks opting to wait some time before going on the market. My group is luckily mostly execution focused/not much pitch work for us.
