[quote=Anonymous]I found that if you stay in Biglaw, you need to be 60% to get any kind of sanity. 80% is a full time job with unpredictable hours. 60% is closer to 25-30 billables a week with unpredictable hours. 3 months back is really hard because you still don't have sleep. Couple that with a busy month and it can feel unbearable. 60% can take you off the "track" sometimes but found it hasn't hurt my career yet. If I wasn't 60%, I couldn't do it. My husband also scaled back so would be home some days and we could cut daycare to 3 days and now we focus on trying to be home when school gets out most days.[/quote]
