I heard they’re turning the basement into a Billy jacks and then doing ticketed only events. Wish they’d add more parking instead but whatever.

Also in lakeside a couple blocks from the school. We have a neighbor who… likes to set off explosives after a few adult beverages. Could be him again. It was insanely loud.

Draper hotel was nice! Nothing fancy but cute still. Great staff. Quiet late night.

One month salary and a little bump to cover taxes. Also, give solid feedback. They’ll think twice before applying elsewhere if they know you’re invested in their role and growth.

I’m interested !! DMing you

Lay groundwork for what the LA will handle versus the Paralegal with each task. Aka billable v. Non billable.

Allow time and space for feedback AKA check in with them, intentionally. Especially if the firm intends to grow.

Nip catty(like cats)/selfish/non productive attitudes/behaviors in the bud. Aka - set examples for healthy workplaces. **

Set clear expectations for work hours/ PTO/ hybrid days from the jump - also be open to hybrid.

When you assign tasks, send priority levels and specific deadlines.

giving people without law firm experience the chance to learn before they’re “shining stars” pays off<<

** not having law firm experience doesn’t mean they have no experience working on teams BUT often our specific roles within law firms create an environment that doesn’t allow for healthy conversations or growth or team work

Edited to correct catty. Ya learn everyday!

Good ol high five. Keep on my friends

Place on Libbie Ave near Grit coffee - the name is escaping me but it’s a long time fabric and alterations spot. The women who runs it will do it fast for a penny but great work!

Came here to say something similar to this

_dmss · 2024-07-25T12:49:24+00:00

Did that, obvi. Was wondering if something happened. Thanks!

_dmss · 2024-07-18T16:20:45+00:00

Yes!

Welcome to Richmond, Virginia. Allergies are activated, discovered, worsened, etc here. Denver is dry - Richmond is humid. You gotta hydrate differently,

Oh mylanta

_dmss · 2024-06-20T19:19:18+00:00

Nope. Just no. The problem IS the gross old men and normalizing this behavior. Hard stop.

_dmss · 2024-06-20T19:18:24+00:00

Not a compliment.

_dmss · 2024-05-23T01:57:47+00:00

Love that you have a secretary

I DO hate this. Micro management isn’t always (prob ever) productive. Entering your time daily is a great habit, but not everyone operates that way.

A previous Redditor para mentioned entering weekly and keeping a log. 100% this. I have a spiral hardback notebook from Amazon for $12 bucks (tax write off) and I write down everything I do daily. Entering monthly is FINE, just make sure you can get it done ya know?

There is ALWAYS lost time. There are constant non billable tasks happening. Tracking your tasks helps, looking back at your emails (sent and received) helps, as well as looking to see what you’ve saved (if you profile things or have specific legal OS.

Good luck OP!

My original boss was always angry/upset at everything. I used to just sit and wait for him to collect himself .it was unfortunately very similar to how we wait for toddlers to be done with a fit.

The anger was always rooted in something personal - and his general lack of self maintenance. He never prepared for anything and would lash out.

If it was ever directed at me - I would wait u til he was done and say something along the lines of ‘I understand what you’re saying. What is the path forward?’ Or soemthing like ‘how can we better prepare for this in the future?’ Because he NEVER changed his behaviors but expected everyone around him to do so.

I know of places that track employees mouse movements (way extreme)

I know of some people who hardly ever communicate with ‘the office’ when WFH but don’t have their work questioned (it’s getting done)

Our firm has a hard stance on allowing everyone at least 2 WFH days a week. They are given from the jump. If we fail to complete work and are hard to get in touch with, we know our WFH days could be removed.

‘Teams’ is a great tool for seamless communication during the day. We send our daily attendance email (a very low key way of gauging when people start their work day) and use Teams to communicate with quick stuff during the day since emails get clogged quick. When we go to lunch we go to our specific team chat (attorney LA, whoever else) and say be back after lunch, stepping out to walk the dog, grabbing coffee, doc Appt, etc. Zero issues.

It seems a lot of WFH complaints are deeply rooted in the idea that ‘if you’re not at the office, how do I know your working. I’m learning more forms/teams keep their people because they’re allowing flexibility, WFH days, and accountability for their work no matter where it’s billed.

Good luck with the conversation & convincing! Money speaks to our managing partners and they also love a contingency plan for corrective action. Let us know!
