Just wrapped a year-long campaign and instead of feeling proud, I’m spiraling into existential dread wondering if any of it actually mattered.

Anyway, what’s trending lately? I need a new hill to die on.

If you got paid, it mattered. You wouldn’t have been able to pay your rent/mortgage. And that, REALLY matters.

None of it matters. We get paid to make things that people pay to avoid. If you want meaning and fulfillment may I suggest another line of work. The truth shall set you free.

None of it will ever matter you get paid to make something clever that will MAYBE make someone buy something. When I first started in this industry I thought maybe I could blend purpose with work but no, the faster you accept this the better you will be.

Want to do something that matters? get involved with a community or cause outside a 9-5, you’ll feel way better.

Hi everyone. Is it typical for the attorney to take credit for the work a paralegal does? An example: I gave some ideas about deposition questions and some observations I made (I was asked about giving suggestions) regarding a witness and the attorney mentioned that he’s the one that had these great questions/observations. Zero credit or thank you for the work I did.

Is it more worth it to go into FDD at a regional firm now, or hope that my current big 4 will transfer me come spring 2021?

I'm kind of in the mindset of only doing FDD at big 4, otherwise I'll go straight to industry. Am I being too down on mid-market FDD experience and the related exit ops?

Also, I can't go the route of doing FDD at a different big 4. Already got rejected by all of them cause I'm not in audit (but have CPA).

One issue with the work from home revolution will be the offshoring of jobs. I got laid off and my replacement will be from Mexico City. One time zone away and probably half my salary. It is what it is.

“have fun with this brief” they say before telling you the client is pretty conservative and needs to have safer options.

i know we don’t always work on stuff we’re thrilled about but i’ve never dreaded reviews for a client before until now
