Putting your best effort into something you don’t care about is why it’s called work and not play. Man up and do your fucking job.

Come to D

Yeah that's why it's called work, just have to make sure you're making timing for yourself so you don't get burnt out...I'm saying this because I'm just emerging from a 5 month high burn and realizing I missed opportunities due to being worked to death/not managing the inevitable stress and resulting apathy that comes with being burnt out

Hello,
I’m a junior data scientist and in my current job I mostly code using Pyspark (no machine learning) so I would like to work on a side project that could leverage my profile and data science/ML skills. What project would you advice me to work on ? (it can be a kaggle project, or a classic task that you do at your job, or a paper that you read).
I’m overwhelmed by the many suggestions online and would prefer to get a suggestion directly from professionals.
PS : I’m not a beginner.

So stuck. What do I do? I joined this firm a year ago (4 yrs exp total) to grow/get more court/client exposure. Then 2 more-experienced associates were hired, pandemic, & all cases are divided between the other 2. I have no defined tasks except deficiency letters or the odd pro bono case. Boss claims it's mentoring. I still need to meet bill req.

Last wk Boss said I'll do more & my work was good, but today said I can't 2nd chair bc I don't have experience. I'm doing less now than my prior firm.
