Do you have Memorial Day off?
New bee here. How do you guys handle this long hours work mode? I feel like it’s not sustainable for me.
What’s the last hobby or project you took on for yourself? Looking to find more balance and do things more than just work and attending work related events.
Do law firms monitor what you’re doing on your work laptop? For example, if I update my resume on my work laptop will they know?
So I found a new job and tomorrow I am going to put in my two weeks’ notice. I am nervous how everyone will react because I have given no clues that I was looking. My boss always asks me if I am happy with where I am at and I lie and say yes so I am nervous this will come out of left field. I do have anxiety and the thought of letting others down only increases my anxiety. Any advice on how to calm my nerves before tomorrow?
Do you ever discuss salary with your colleagues? Our partner said it was highly discouraged which just makes me want to snoop more.
Will anyone expect me to work? No. Is my life going to be miserable if I miss an entire day of billable work? Yes. So, I'll be working.
My office is “closed” and admin will be off, so kinda, but I need to meet my hours somehow so I’ll be working.
Yes and my boss told my team to basically phone it in today and just pay attention to email.
thats not vacation. all my devices are off
Our office is “closed” and a lot of people are traveling so suspect my emails will be quiet but I’ll probably sneak in a couple hours to catch up on stuff. In biglaw if that matters.
I’m in a mid sized law firm. Law firm is open 24/7, and also has three days in per week policy. So I assume I can work from home on that day ?
Why would you work on a major holiday?
Yes. Got all my work done before and just said I’m gonna be out today and Monday
Yes but I’m big law so nobody cares
Yes and I’m in big law and I’m taking it off because I’m leaving soon and don’t care.
Yes...but only because I was laid off. My last day is today.
Thank you. It sucks but there's nothing I can do about it.
Absolutely
Yep, closed and no emails reviewed.
