“The deadlines are more what you’d call guidelines than actual rules.” Captain Barbossa.

This is why you don’t acquiesce to a request for parley.
Many (most?) GCs and HOLs who got in the in-house game did so because they preferred that life.
Outside of litigations, critical transactions, and some rare emergencies, most other deadlines are illusory.
I suspect many folks are hesitant to ask. You shouldn’t be. Setting a deadline is a partnership. If I propose a Wednesday and Wednesday doesn’t work for you because you have an upcoming brief/vacation/trial, you can mention that and ask me. I’m never going to get mad because you have other work, bc of course you do. And if it’s critical, I’ll tell you that.
All that said, don’t let us hang up the phone/zoom/whatever without getting a rough timeline for every project.
Definitely let me know when you are! I’m awesome 😊
(Oh and if you need evidence, consider how 95% of deadlines actually do move).
I pray that I learn that some partner made an associate miss a meaningful life event to meet a deadline that I literally picked out of the ether. If you’re too scared to ask if the deadline can move then how do you have the courage to fight for a position you might not like?

Probably because one has nothing to do with the other and partners just don’t really care that much about associates in many cases.
This is the way…..
