What’s one thing you’re grateful for today?

I’ll start: I’m grateful that my family has never had to worry about where their next meal is coming from. I think we tend to focus on the negatives a lot, so hoping if everyone stops to think of one thing they can be grateful for it’ll improve your day slightly.

Any advice on how to deal with a partner/boss who is shifting all responsibility to me with zero guidance, no mentoring, and an unwillingness to discuss the issues? (Small firm, only associate under this partner and have been working at the firm for 2 years). There are an increasing number of passive aggressive comments from the partner who expects to be completely hands off once the case lands on my desk. Wants me to figure it all out despite cases being from different areas of law.
