Just about every Sunday night in November and December. I have several governmental clients with Dec 31 deadlines, and once Thanksgiving passes, it gets really difficult getting things from clients as everyone kind of checks out for the year.

This year the stress is a little more than normal with final part of CPA exam scheduled for December and a kid on the way.

My job now no I very rarely get stressed about work, my job before that I hated I was stressed everyday and seriously thought about ways I could burn the building down and not get caught. I am pretty sure I had a fool proof plan in place when I finally got my pardon and was able to land the job I have now.

So you don't have employees or clients that depend on you for anything.

Few employees but they're automatic. Show up, do their job and leave. Only thing I really have to worry about is producing a schedule.

Yeah that must be nice to not have any overhead, debt, taxes, insurance, payroll, bidding contracts, etc, all those typical everyday things that comes with running a company.

Yep done all of that, 90 hour weeks etc. I make about as much now, get two months paid time off and 30 hour weeks in winter. It's low stress in a beautiful spot

When I started my first professional job I would get stressed because I wasn't comfortable with public speaking. If I had a presentation the next day, I would be super stressed the night before. I don't have that issue anymore, though.

I'm not usually stressed on Sunday, but I am bummed out that I have to work the next day. As someone else stated, I feel the best on Friday afternoon.

ETA: I also 'self medicate' by listening to a podcast or watching TV while I fall asleep, so that I don't think about projects/tasks/presentations/meetings for the next day.

Lol I don't work anywhere near 90 hours a week. Usually only work Mon-Thurs half days on Friday. Take off whenever I want for vacations, hunting and fishing. Make enough to live comfortably and although I'm exprememly blessed, it doesn't come easy. I have to work for everything we have.

I took a speech class at LSU freshman year. The day of my first speech I left the classroom before they called me and dropped the class. That's how much of a scared pussy I was.
