Why are firms insisting on staff being back in the office when we all did our jobs great remotely for 2.5 years?? When we’re in the office the attorneys sit in their offices with the doors shut and email us anyway. Just let people work where they want to.

Exactly! They’re doing it to us because we’re the pee-ons that they can always boss around when the attorneys don’t come in when they’re supposed to and most, like you said, hang out in their offices and still email us every request. We really only see them when the free lunch is ready.

Our "supervisor" never comes in the office. Most attorneys don't come in the office anymore. Accounting/Billing is remote. Marketing does what they want. Docket is remote. Yet they insist the secretarial staff work in the office three days a week (unless you're favored!). Ridiculous!

I am going to counter but curious what anyone thinks I should ask for. I was thinking 8%.
