Do we have image problem due to Bollywood. New Indian colleague used 'Paaji' 10 times in 1 minute conversation plus expecting me to laugh at anything useless🙄
Finally said her - Hey, I have a name 🥴

Haha yes this bothers me sometimes, when someone says Paaji a lot. It gets on my nerves!

Small firm (my boss, me, & a paralegal). After a hearing I did not handle, boss intended to seek review of the ruling in its entirety. What was communicated to me by paralegal was to seek review of a portion.

Seeking review is now time-barred. Boss is not upset, but this is 1 case & 1 problem. There are other cases & other stories.

How do I talk to my boss about being more present (boss is never in office, has “too many” emails, never answers his phone) without being seen as insubordinate?

How do you deal with a challenger type of personality? I’m fairly new and I know the senior is trying to teach me the thought process.

Looking for advice:
My dept has 2 directors. One is so rude. The other ignores the issue. The previous HR director told me to report any issues because she was building a case (not appropriate info to share, I know). She's since left and there's a new HR director. This rude guy has recently sent me several very rude things through email and I'm debating how to handle it. Is it worth it to talk to HR? Im worried it'll just make things worse since none of it is "wrong", just rude and insensitive.

I have a partner who routinely ignores emails or responds to them several weeks later. He has to approve every single document sent to the client or the court, which means you have a physically go to his office to ask him to review something. Half of the time you go to meet with him in person, he’s either on a call or otherwise busy. I find that this basically creates more work and makes meeting deadlines extremely difficult. Is this normal?

Felt a connection

ਧੂੜਾਂ ਵਿੱਚ ਨਸਦੇ ਸੀ

ਅਰਸ਼ਾਂ ਵੱਲ ਨਜ਼ਰਾਂ ਨੇ
ਜੂਹਾਂ ਛੱਡ ਆਏ ਹਾ

ਰੋਹੀਆਂ ਦੇ ਵਾਸੀ ਸਾਂ
ਬਾਗਾਂ ਦੀ ਲੋੜ ਨਹੀਂ
ਕਿੱਕਰਾਂ ਦੇ ਜਾਇਆਂ ਨੂੰ
ਕੰਡਿਆਂ ਦੀ ਤੋੜ ਨਹੀਂ
