[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]14:46, also consider your Dad has decades of experience, contacts, etc., that let him get away with more than J. Random 4th Year Associate or OP (unless OP is bringing along a massive Rolodex or knowledge of some really niche area.) If someone can make it rain, then he gets more latitude. [quote=Anonymous]I was a partner on a case where the senior associate emailed the entire trial team (25 lawyers, including the client) that her C was scheduled for the following Tuesday at 9am so the weekly call would have to be moved from 10 am to noon. I think she saw it as a sign of strength and commitment. She was an outstanding lawyer and this made her seem a little off actually. [/quote] I've suspect some law-talkers don't even notice/care aside from having to change their calendar, a few think women like this are nuts nuts nuts, and others think "You go girl". I just don't know the percentages, and I've always wondered if that sort of extreme behavior really does get them ahead in the office. [/quote] That's just embarrassing. She would have seemed a lot stronger if she'd just asked to move the call because she was unavailable; I'm sure word would have gotten around as to the reason why. Sadly or not, it's never a sign of strength in the workplace to mention family obligations.[/quote]
