I’m assuming you’re talking about calls with external parties?

There are lots of great tools, but to be effective they generally need to integrate with your actual calendar. Only your IT can help with this bc they need to sign off on anything like that.

I have this partner who doesn’t enjoy working with me because I do below avg work for her but she has little choice of foot soldiers. I do below avg work for her because she consistently gives me little time to do huge tasks (and usually at odd hours) and doesn’t involve me in what finally goes to the client (and I have no visibility on the client’s expectations, response, feedback, expected timeline). How do we (mainly I) get out of this painful cycle?

Out of office auto-replies: I am taking off for my wedding and honeymoon next week, traveling to Asia where I will have super limited access to email. I usually have my out of office say something along the lines of “I will have limited access to email and my responses may be delayed” but for something like this where I don’t plan to respond to anything, what do people usually put? Middle level in a finance group at a V20 firm in NY if it matters and will have coverage for everything

Joined my firm 1.5 years ago (3rd year, lit) and have been slow since Day 1. Missed my hours target last year and am on track to be just as slow this year. I am staffed on a few cases but they’re quiet right now, and I regularly ask for work just to be ignored or told “thanks, but I have nothing.” Reviews have been good, I’m just not working enough. I like the partners I work with, and the work they do, but I am scared I’ll be fired if I miss my hours again this year. Should I be looking?

Lateraled to a new firm a few weeks ago and they've staffed me exclusively on their slammed financial services litigation matters. But my background is in a completely different practice area that I love, and this firm told me during the interview process that I'd continue to work in that practice area. What would you do?

Boss just told me to stop working on the only matters I have. Is this the eventual road to being laid off?
