[QUOTE="Shiv Lawy, post: 240434, member: 43475"] I'm closer to 30 than being a fresh grad now and tbh I'm welcoming a return to the grind. My first few jobs out of uni were 9-6 in not particularly exciting roles and then I've spent the last 2 years being completely unbound by time (part time work only/Masters/running a business) Whereas I love not having a commute and my mental and physical health is at a peak, it can be exhausting always being on the clock and stressing about money. Now that I've found my commercial niche and enjoy the work of a solicitor I'm ready to go back to a more structured day, especially if it pays me enough to live more centrally and not have a long commute. The way I see it I work 100hr weeks right now looking for a job and winning new business I rather be paid to do work that feels worthwhile than working 45 hrs a week in a dead end job. [/QUOTE]
