In this economy, your outside counsel is probably appreciating you and thinking fond thoughts

I second that ehhhhh
I guess this year it’s not as bad since nobody can really do anything else. But DONT LET IT HAPPEN AGAIN!!!!!
A7- in my case it’s always more like my partner trying to get work done on the weekend so I’m up all Sunday night
So why do it? Are things going to burn if the work product gets to you on Wednesday? I guess without additional context I personally find your comment an odd brag about how you might have just ruined someone’s probably needed weekend. It’s not amusing.
Ok, with that context, my opinion of you has improved tremendously. It’s true sometimes these things can’t be avoided, and I appreciate that you appear to have really thought about the situation before dropping the work on someone. Wish more people would approach weekend work this way.
It’s fine. It’ll be good fodder for community building... have a common enemy.
OP you're the BEST. Today I also got something at 5PM and I almost jumped for joy since I need to justify my name being on the payroll. You should do that more often. Thanks.
Same. I’m a junior associate who’s work load picked up for the first time since mid March, and I’ve been so happy to spend my weekend billing.
As an associate who has been screwed like this before, I am throwing fruit, preferably fruit that stains and will be very difficult to get out.
I know this has to happen sometimes, but this post is still...triggering.
The two Trial Lawyers meet again!!!!
That’s what they are for.
Why would anyone feel bad about giving work to an outside counsel. So what if it’s a holiday weekend? It’s called a job. They’ll live. There’s nowhere to go anyway.

I’m not so concerned about the fact that you took some freedom from them. I’m more concerned about the fact that you detracted from a holiday remembering those who died fighting for us.
Omg A8 you can’t be serious right now.

OP, was this an emergency that you had to send out when and as you did, or with the benefit of hindsight could you have sent it out earlier (or later)?
