I know, life is hard. Don’t make it harder by making plans you already are questioning whether you can keep. Looking forward to vaca is part of the joy, don’t make it a stressor instead.

Any information would be helpful, Thanks in advance...

Had a talk with the partners Thursday, they said I’m not producing enough work at the end of each day. First year associate, new area of law, wfh so they are more “what are you doing every second”. They want me to start turning in a daily log (we are plaintiffs attorneys so no billing normally) any advice? While I appreciate their honesty, I feel like they consider me severely indebted to them that they hired me mid pandemic and “allow” me to work from home.
