If you could snap your fingers and change one thing about your job, what would it be?

For me, it would be how decisions are made. I feel like key decisions are made at the top without any input from those doing the work. Authority sits high but accountability is pushed low. That’s an unfortunate issue I’d like to see changed immediately.

What about you?

I'm the only associate on a case with two partners. The elderly, managing partner thinks that a party has had three prior wrecks, I'm confident that the party only had one. He keeps telling witnesses/experts about his multiple prior wrecks, and I keep correcting him afterwards in private, but he keeps making the same mistake.

How should I handle this?

I’ve been at my current job a month shy of a full year, yet I have already seen that there are not a whole lot of promotions or raises to stretch for, but part of that comes from being hired in a little green for the role. I’m currently negotiating salaries on the west coast and am nearly certain we will reach an agreement soon. How do I give my two weeks without burning bridges?
