FACTS!! How hard is it to plan ahead to accommodate everyone? They act like they’re the only person we work for 🫠
PREACH. I was so adept at putting out fires and expecting yelling phone calls the day of deadlines because “they” forgot.
I always schedule a due date for whatever it is for it to be to me. I also have reminders set a few days before the actual due date. I also ran a report of all deadlines every Monday for each one of my attorneys. Each of the teams I worked with also tried to have a meeting every other week to discuss the status of our cases and deadlines. I carried a heavy caseload so this was the best way to keep me and my entire team on track without having those "OH crap" moments.
Yeah I always tell my paralegals that the actual due date is 3 days before lol
I’ve tried setting “get this to me” deadlines.
No, it’s not actually due for 3 more days, but I need it before then!
Doesn’t work.
I’m still getting documents at 4:55 the day it is due.
