States attorney

I'm so sick of my schedule and 2000 hour requirement, I haven't had time for any of my hobbies in months, just feel like I'm crumbling a bit...

Need some advice, I have an opportunity to go in house and an opportunity to become an assistant district attorney. I want to still be in court, but I'm worried that if I choose ADA I'll be stuck in litigation forever, if I go in house I'll have a higher upside with a nice schedule but I'll never get to be in the courtroom again.

Idk what to do, or what I want to do, but I think I need to switch jobs.

Thanks for reading this incoherent rant

What is the max you can expect to make at a firm billing under 2000 hours a year?

I'm making a hair over 100k with a 2000 billable goal 4 years into practice and I just feel like I'm getting dicked around sometimes. We have firm paid for insurance, but no other benefits really besides for a small 401k match.

I look at the revenue I bring in and at the rates the we are billing for work what is the max I can even make here, it looks like 150k but idk...

I just wonder if I'm making mountains out of mole hills or if I'm missing out on potentially more money and more free time, but the lack of respect I get here is grinding me down. Idk if I have any questions or just need to rant after a bad start to the day, but any thoughts or advice on this? I'm around the northwest suburbs of Chicago

Got these for $80, couldn't resist. Never worn penny loafers before, how am I going to make them not smell without socks?!

I've gotten so fat at this job! Have any of you considered taking a summer off to just work construction and lose weight? Between work and kids idk how I'm going to get healthy otherwise

Does anyone have any experience lateraling to a midsized national firm and switching from litigation to transactional? Anyway to make the move from litigation to transactional without starting all over?

Any of you know a good suit brand for someone with broad shoulders? I've looked at State and Liberty and they're too tight everywhere else, I want a classic look but just where the shoulders are bigger
