Before noon

Depends on how much other stuff if I have to do. I’m a perfect world, before 10am. Low guilt option, noon. Feeling guilty but whatever, before 3pm. I’m in doo doo but whatever, the rest of the day.

Between 9am and 12pm

If I see it before 3 PM I'm usually happy with that. Basically so I have enough time to at least look at it during the work day.

Do you know anything about the person who said that? I work for some people who would mean tomorrow morning, as in any time before noon, and others who would mean they want to be able to turn to it when they start work in the morning which for some of the early riser partners might be 6am.

This totally depends on the person. I am most productive in the early AM so for me this would be before 10. But I understand that doesn’t translate to everyone so if I want something that early I usually say something like “first thing” or “by when I log in” to set expectations.

The day after tomorrow usually for me.

Just ask when they intend to review. If some says early to me I assume before like 11 but some people might mean they went to review it first thing in the day

12:00am

Lol I was gonna say 5am. Bested me!

Everyone means something different. EOD for me is midnight, but for some it implies end of BUSINESS day (which is like 5-6pm). Same thing for “early tomorrow.” You just have to ask them - IF you care. Otherwise, they’re lawyers and should know better than to be so vague. So, their ambiguity is either a blessing or a curse depending on your mood.

I think 11 ish

Early tomorrow means send it before you go to sleep tonight

AITA? Director chewed me out for being behind on State Returns

I got a passive aggressive email today from a director who said he didn’t understand my current status on state returns. For background, the processes at this company are some of the worst and nonsensical i’ve ever seen, and i was not trained in the software and the management is nonexistent. Everyone’s out for themselves.

That being said, he said i should tone down understanding the “why” as their states have been audited (ctd.)
