Ok so was wondering why over the past couple of years the company I work at had given no early release the eve of a holiday weekend 😕. We'll come to find out the onsite staff got to leave early with nothing said to the remote workers like myself who end up working a full day. I'm livid about this!!!!! Am I wrong??

You've got a point, it's obviously unfair. But I think that's just indicative of the way a lot of managers show less respect to remote workers. They should have given you the time off, sure. But I don't know if it's worth making an issue of it, it's smart to choose your battles.

My old job did this. They said it was a perk for those that come in only.

If you work a hybrid situation and the holiday falls on a work from home day…then maybe…but if you are a full time remote employee, then no…it should be a perk for the in office worker.

I can kind of see both sides here, but I think if nothing else, your employer should have made it clear that in-office people have early release or something to that effect. It would be frustrating to me that it wasn’t something known or addressed. Especially if it’s been years of that.

How are 1st year litigation associates dealing with WFH? I’ve been having terrible anxiety/panic attacks, and pretty sure my billables wont exceed 110 for April. I’ve been super stressed about it and don’t know how to move on to May with the proper mindset to make up for as much time missed as possible. CA courts are still closed, and I’m worried I won’t be able to exceed (or even meet) my May goal after April.
