True, I feel like a lot of stuff is up to our discretion.

There will always be special circumstances, so it helps to have a process in place where you can flag and review content that might be "on the fence."

What I love about the job, getting to form a community from nothing, is also the most intimidating aspect. It feels like no matter how often I add to the internal and community guidelines, situations still pop up with no clear solutions.

Does anyone work at a firm where legal assistants don't do legal assistant things? For example, I have to do my scheduling and calendaring. I have to upload documents to our file management system. This morning, a name partners assistant didn't realize the name partner had a depo and didn't confirm it. This is how this firm as been for decades and it's incredibly frustrating to work this way. It's so hard to not stress over this daily.
