    I’m starting out as an intern and don’t really know what my boundaries should be. I’m trying to do a lot of stuff so that I seem valuable, and the company will hire me. But I can’t keep up with other things in my life. I know that they’ll probably expect me to keep up the pace once I’m hired full time, but I won’t be able to long-term.

    Slacking off now or setting reasonable expectations would mean I’m less likely to be hired I think.

    But then again, my boss is a really nice and understanding guy. He hasn’t pushed me to work so hard - I did that myself to increase the chances I’ve been hired. Just not really sure what to do.
