And when do you start?

And, no, not asleep. I try to sleep but it's become hard to shut the brain off.

WTF, when do you start?

Why are all of you starting in the middle of f'ing July?

I'd be in Europe right now and not starting until Aug. 1 if I didn't have a bar exam to study for.

Holy shite. That is nice. Morning meeting starts at 5AM. Gotta get all the ducks in a row before the bell, brah.

But we also don't stay at the office until 2AM unless it's earnings season. 10PM latest 8 mos. out of the year.

Yeah. There is a lot of training travel with this job. I don't have a month for the rest of the year where I'm not going to be flown around the country for a week.

That's nice, man. I'm imagining some lady from the office with a pretty voice calling to check in every so often. "Mr. Flask, are the accommodations we've provided suitable for your present needs?"

Yeah, 8:30 AM sounds really nice ... that is, unless you're at the office until 3AM.

I start at 7:30 am. For the first 3 months I train in Nashville and after that I'm flown all over the place 70% of the time.

The flying will be fun. I've got lots of Silicon Valley and San Fran. to look forward with an NYC trip once a quarter or so. But not until after a few months.

Everyone my office was complaining about the long hours when we went out for the meet and greet lunch. They would 50-60 hours per week. I might have to ask you for a screenshot of your outlook so I can forward it around the office.

I'm not 100% sure what to expect. My best guess would be about 80/wk 8 mos. out of the year and up that to 100 during earnings season 1 mo. each quarter.
