How often are you multi-tasking during meetings? I hate to do it, but I also feel if I don’t, client deliverables pile too high.

Often if I’m not leading. Allows me to sign off early too

I’m very jealous you get to sign off early.

I do it whenever I'm able. As long as it's a relatively unimportant meeting, I don't feel badly at all for doing it. I've got way too much on my plate to sit idly for an hour or two during the work day.

That’s how I feel. Unfortunately, most of my meetings I’m leading so it’s much harder to multitask

I try to avoid it as often as possible. Depends on the meeting though. I try to be intentional with my time but there are definitely some things I just need to listen into and am only needed for part of the time. That's when I multitask.

I am an senior associate at a small (8-10 attorneys) immigration firm in NYC. My base is 110k and I get 30% for the cases and clients I bring in. My revenue was 370k last year and I did 250k till April this year.

My issue is, I have so much firm's work that I have hard time to work on my cases/clients. It feels like my cases are supposed to be done after hours (like after 6 pm). My work hours are crazy. I feel this is unfair and since my firm's taking 70% of my sales. Should I ask for a raise?

On a scale of 1-10 with 10 being the most, how pissed would you be if you were a supervisor and you had a new direct report on your team with a higher salary than you? The years of experience are the same, but you have 3 designations (they have 0), you have 3 licenses (they have just 2), they have little to no experience with technical complex claims (you have hundreds), and you have 3 years in management (they have 0).

15 YOE, recently started my first tech PR job at a large, stable company & have been asked to get ~20 SMEs in front of media. Subject matter is not sexy. I lead PR for all of U.S. & have no other PR colleagues. My agency’s budget is 100k/year & they’re spread too thin to hit their KPIs. I feel set up to fail & feel we should be focusing on a handful of SMEs and only our sexiest topics. Any advice on mitigating unrealistic expectations for coverage? Anyone handled similar problems in the past?
