Career Resources
It is not that bad and you get into a rhythm. The hard part is general life maintenance and losing touch with hobbies.
My number one recommendation is to hire cleaners, it is something I can’t give up now.
I come from India, we’ve always had cleaners here hahahaha. As for the second part, are you able to take out time to exercise/be with fam, s/o etc?
I second the above post. I hit the desk around 7 months ago, and definitely had some harsh adjustments from my sabbatical between graduation and working. I have found that prioritizing is key. Do you prioritize exercise? Then wake up before work and get a workout in. Do you prioritize sleep / rest? Wind down as soon as your team is signed off for the night, and avoid mindless scrolling in bed. Do you prioritize friendships? See your friends / roommates on nights / weekends when work is less busy.
Find what you really care about and prioritize it. Personally, I wake up at 6am every day I do not work past midnight to get an hour-long workout in. On weekends, I see my friends when I can, understanding that work can blow this up. My girlfriend lives in a different city, which I have found is strangely okay given she works in a similar role and is very busy as well. When I am with her every 2-3 weeks I can fully devote my attention to her and when we are apart I can dedicate my time to work.
The hardest part of the job is that in most cases it is impossible to balance fitness, sleep and relationships. I had to cut down on sleep to prioritize the other two. My $0.02 but am curious to hear others' routines.
Do you work for BB or EB? and which country? because where I am 14h/day for a couple of days in a row is considered slacking off (unless you are ASO 2-3 or above).
Where are you? NYC EB?
12 hour work days sounds like a part-time job to me
real
Exactly, more like 16/17h work day 😂
