[quote=Anonymous]Huh I am in biglaw and work horrible grueling hours since Covid (pre covid I had 15 years of very reasonable hours) and it comes up a lot because it it literally all I do these days (but for seeing my kid and husband). But it’s possible my friends think I’m being a martyr or bragging about it when it comes up (they say “how are you, what have you been up to” and I say literally nothing but working, it sucks). I’m not being a martyr. I’m not happy about it but keep hoping this phase ends because I otherwise like my job. But the point is that I think sometimes listenings think you’re bragging about being busy when really all you are doing is saying you are busy. Western society has a real sensitivity about the way we talk about jobs. [/quote]
