Has anyone ever put in their two weeks and had the company tell them that they don’t need that time and to just quit then? Worried about putting it in before the holiday (thanksgiving) and them being like “we don’t need you for these last few days then”....

They usually pay you still for the two weeks even if you’re not working.

Not necessarily

That’s always possible and it does happen

Sheesh. Do you have any advice? Should I wait longer to tell them or?

Need to stay with the company until 12/31 to get the bonus. Will put a two week notice and select 1/4 as the final day. Let’s see what happens.

I put notice in yesterday, and still have to work through my last day. Wish I could not work and still be paid the 2 weeks lol

I’m in this exact situation. I’m planning to not let the employer know until mid-break and I’ve already taken some time off post-break that they can cut if they want but that’s less of an issue for me (basically I built in the “you can just quit now” buffer)

Where can I find the holiday calendar in CGI?

Took my first vacation (1 week) in over a year to visit family. Was bombarded by emails from one partner asking me to complete non-time sensitive motions, which he hasn’t even bothered to review. This is my third firm in three years (first I left as I was severely underpaid, second I left for a 100k increase in salary), but this lack of respect for my boundaries has made me want to move again once I’ve completed 18 mos. Bad? They don’t do this to the other associates (all male).

We have 5 attorneys (3 partners; 2 associates). Senior associate (who is being promoted to non-equity partner) is pregnant. We don’t have any sort of maternity policy but she will have 3 weeks of PTO to cash in. How do other firms handle cost of insurance premiums while ee is out? We currently cover ee portion and she pays for 100% of dependent cost. Is it reasonable to ask her to write check back to firm for her portion of dependent premiums? Assume she is taking full 4 mos off.

Hey all I have an opportunity to buy a vacation home as a private sale from my parents (they are buying a new house in that area and need to sell the old one), it is waterfront property in NH 10 minutes from Mt Sunappee. I am concerned that making this purchase may make me a little cash poor in the short term, but still manageable. Would it make more sense to rent out the property through a rental company that included insurance and cleaning or to put it on airbnb?

I’m seeing lots of posts about really bad losses. If you trade you’re going to lose money - hopefully not all the time, but many positions will be mistakes. But you need a process to find ideas and manage positions. Two books you should read are “The New Trading for a Livinng” and “The Laws of Trading.” Both look at psychology, process, and risk in different ways that can help you work out your own process. The next 18 months will be much harder than the last 18 - time to start learning.
