Does the task require manager level knowledge to complete? If so, then push back. If not, then shut-up and do your job.

So you're saying that the Manager does not possess the knowledge to complete the task, but somehow a staff does? Sounds to me like it's just a tedious task that the Manager doesn't want to do, so is giving it to staff to push the work to a lower billable rate.

I would normally agree with the naysayers here but this was a classic case of manager not being involved throughout the entire project and now as we conclude and give the final presentation to the client/get asked for follow up analysis, they're completely clueless

I’ve been trying to figure out dosage and medication over the past month and wanted some insight from people who may have more experience with diff doses. I started with 5mg Adderall for 2 weeks but it stopped being effective around the 4-5th day. I switched to 10 mg for a week and it was good but a bit up and down, so switched to Vyvanse 30 mg for a week, which was too strong. I’m now on 15 mg Adderall, but it feels like I can’t concentrate and I’m scattered. Question in comments:
