[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am totally confused. All these threads on DCUM about how Big Law associates work a million hours a week, and therefore can't do any kind of help at home, and you were averaging under 60 hours a week as an associate, and even less now? Is this really typical? So, the people whining about how their Big Law spouses are never home, where are those people? I always assumed it was more like 4,000 a year based on what I read here. I am flabbergasted. [/quote] 60 x 50 weeks (assume 2 weeks vacation) is 3k hours per year. OPs DH is doing 2800 hours per year (2k billable) which is pretty close to 60 hours per week. [/quote]
