Don’t worry. You’re being too hard on yourself. It’s a great time to reassess your practice and how you’re going about things. And as far as business development is concerned, clients stay for the lawyer, not the firm in my experience. Have faith in your abilities and trust that your clients have faith in you. You wouldn’t make partner otherwise. All the best.

Feeling “busy” all day long without much to show for it at the end of the day or any good benchmark of how I am doing compared to others in similar situations (working from dining room table, 4 kids and spouse buzzing around). No way I am “killing it,” just hoping I am coming in above the mean. #covidgoals

I have actually been pretty much shamed for wanting to be in the office. Before, I worked from home a lot because I have a long commute and it was easier to just plow through. But with my spouse teaching from home and my kids doing virtual school, it is hard to get uninterrupted blocks of time. So I was trying to go in a day or two a week. But I’m really being discouraged from it even though I’ve been following precautions.

I'm trying to figure out how to pivot out of my current job. My department is in utter chaos, which has just become completely unmanageable. I'm looking for front-end web design work, and work from home. I am a strong designer and basically set up landing pages for large companies on a proprietary CMS in our company. If anyone knows of places I could apply? I'm not trying to reinvent myself as I do artwork on the side and would rather grow that business and get out of the chaos of fortune 500.

Can someone explain how billable hours work? At a new agency and although I had to fill timesheets at my previous agencies, they were mainly used to ensure we weren’t over servicing a client/for setting the appropriate retainer for contract renewals.

I get the impression that billing to the agency admin code isn’t recommended, and my manager said he bills everything to client codes, but that doesn’t make sense to me .
