I don't understand how you can dialog with them all night and then at quitting time they just up and vanish. Not a single; "have a good weekend. see you tomorrow, I'm out." Nothing. not even a "frick you" and a middle finger. Hell, I'd take that over talking to them one minute and the next, their work area is a tomb. Wtf, weirdos.

You’re a goofball. Enjoy your life.

We don’t have any lights on in the office. The entire wall is a wrap around window. You might be a serial killer if you prefer the lights on instead of natural light.

I liked Natty Lughts so much I ripped all the curtains down in my first apartment.

So they removed the tubes completely from 3 fixtures leaving 4 in one fixture?
You could remove 8 of 16, 2 each from 4 fixtures, and 2 would work fine, as long as you remove the correct 2. You can't remove 3 of 4 from a fixture because none of them will burn without some rewiring and a ballast change. You could have one lamp in each fixture and use the existing ballasts but that would take a HEAP of rewiring.
There are 2 with 2 lamps each. The other 2 fixtures are completely empty. We're also being transitioned to 100% digital plan reviews, so we really don't need the brightness that engineering bullpens were built on.

Your answer would be more in line with a government bureaucrat.
If you were an attorney and told me that, I’d fire you immediately.
Very few top attorneys give 100% for specific clients. A successful attorney has too many clients/cases to devote that much time to one. Billable requirements are larger than what one client can provide, so attention/resources must be divided.
Funny enough, the attorneys I know who absolutely give the most effort to specific cases are "government bureaucrats", specifically certain prosecutors and public defenders. The combination of job security, no billable requirements, and less demands on efficiently permit them to give that sort of effort.
Your private attorneys who are more likely to give extreme effort are likely desperate shops that are begging for business, and they're begging for business for a reason. 100% effort of an inferior attorney < 50% effort of an elite attorney.
It's like what I usually say, perfection is expensive.

Pro tip. Multitasking is largely bullshite. If you want to listen to music while working and not create diversions, listen to music without lyrics/language.

Should We Turn off the Music? Music with Lyrics Interferes with Cognitive Tasks

We obtained a reasonably consistent pattern across tasks: performance was generally best under silence, intermediate in the instrumental condition, and worse in the lyrical condition.
quote:
In general, we expected lyrical music to have a more pronounced negative effect on verbal tasks. Yet, the general trend was the same for all tasks. Although it may seem surprising that visual memory was similarly impacted as verbal memory by music with lyrics, recent evidence is mounting that visuospatial tasks tend to be impaired by verbal as well as non-verbal means (Morey, 2018). Furthermore, presentation times in our visual task were sufficiently long to allow for participants to try to verbaly label the memoranda, and previous research from our lab has shown that labeling can improve episodic long-term memory (Overkott & Souza, 2022). Music with lyrics may therefore interfere with this labeling process, thereby harming performance.

I agree that listening to a podcast or anything for that matter is distracting to some degree.

Bro, when that time comes you can consider me retired.

You know what's great if you're allowed the time for full focus to get into a work flow state? vide game-inspired dnb mixes, or just Sonic the Hedgehog soundtracks.

I already have given an CLE presentation on the impact of AI on billable hourly models, and it's not pretty (at least remaining within the ethical rules).
Big firms are going to have to adopt the Wachtell Lipton model of partner: associate or they won't make it. Increasing partner share by extracting excess value from associate and paralegal hours is going to die.

You’re a well known guy and attorney. Are you trying to kill your referrals or you just love being poor?
Why would you admit to this?
This is just wild to me. You’ve basically said if I hire you, you will not try very hard.
SFP, I thought you were smarter than this.
