If it is for the Russian clients then why are we billing under 099925.003? Also, shouldn't we be saving on the London server instead of US1?

[Junior Partner] said to temporarily bill under that client-matter number until he sends a new one. I have not received an updated number. Please let me know what the new number is. When do I absolutely need to correct the time by? Please note that it will take a few hours to review my records and I have already closed out my time for last week so I will need to send a note to Jerry in order to correct. Thanks.

Are you serious? The new number is 099925.004.

It's March 3, all time closes in 54 minutes.

You need to cancel out all time that has already transferred and enter with new descriptions and delete all ABA approved codes - this client doesn't do those codes - and close it out in 53 minutes.

The client writes our time off if it's late at all.

That isn't all that remarkable. I have had, a few days before a closing, an urgent request to input and close out time. You know, right during that crunch when you just fucking know it will be an all nighter, possibly 2 back to back. It can't wait a few days, the client NEEDS to know now so they can begin arguing with the partner or even so they can move up the closing to give you LESS time. Unfortunately, what makes this thread amusing is that all of the shit ITT is truly standard bullshit you deal with on a daily basis.

*After you finish this in the middle of the night, you wearily wonder if there is something else you have to do before heading home and getting 4 hours of sleep*

*You realize the fucking changes on an exhibit were never input*

*You seriously feel tears beginning to well up*

*Worse, you do the most beta thing imaginable*

Hi [Senior Associate],

I finished inputting the time as requested. Don't worry, I got it in before the 3am deadline. I know I need to input the changes to Exhibit Y, but after that is there anything else that needs to be done tonight before I head out?

Thanks,

[Miserable Associate]

*calls help desk*

Miserable Associate: Hi, I can't check the document back in. Can you please close it out on your end? All changes were already saved.

Help Desk: Just close the document on your computer, please.

Miserable Associate: The computer is frozen.

Help Desk: Were you trying to exit via the "X" at the top right instead of using File to Exit as per policy?

Miserable Associate: (lies) Um, I used File to Exit and it froze anyway.

Help Desk: I'm going to need to put you on hold.

*Email pops up from senior associate*: "Miserable Associate, I promised [Junior Partner] we would have his changes input and turned over by now with both cleaned and redlined versions. Please update on status and ETA ASAP. Thanks."

(it is 1am, and Miserable Associate looks out his window to see a crowd of tourists leaving a bar, laughing. The temptation to open said window and jump out is almost overwhelming)

I was able to figure it out. I had to read the first few posts a couple of times. It is complete anarchy at my current firm. I wouldn't even know where to begin. People over the years started creating sub-folders with ALL CAPS to make them easier to find. It is impossible to tell someone how to find a particular client's folder because everyone has their own way of doing things. One paralegal I had (the worst one EVER) saved everything onto her desktop. She lasted like three months, too.

lol mine has a real doc management system, but there's another server the firm uses for other stuff where it's anarchy like that

dozens of competing folders with "aaaaaaaa" and numbers at the beginning to get to the top of the list so that the lazyass boomers and hr 'specialists' who create them don't have to scroll down the alphabetically organized directory

did you ever fuck up a doc and call the IT people to restore the prior versions, praying that one of them would be what you need?

i did this once and getting the restored version was like finding the ark of the covenant.

The worst moment I had was when the computer crashed and the last saved version was hours ago (even though I had set autosave to once ever 3 minutes). Called the help desk. They listened, then said that they can reinstall MS Office the next day, but that the document was gone forever. Could have gone home at midnight, went home at 6am instead.

You are beyond crying at that point. You feel absolutely dead inside. There is a brief spark of rage and dispair but it dies out quickly. You tell yourself it will go faster this time. This is a lie and you know it. You stare at the wall for literally 15 minutes. Then you start again, telling yourself that this is the last time this will happen. Another lie. You know this too.

I know this experience too well. looking back, I feel like I should always have said fuck it, gotten good sleep, and popped an addy while redoing it in the morning after sleeping.

I def feel like a lot of late-nighters are self-inflicted or unnecessary, the result of unwillingness to push back, manage expectations or say "X happened, I may not be able to get this to you until noon tomorrow".

I tried that after I lateraled. It doesn't fly. The all nighters are expected and if you avoid them you will get crap. In fact, so complete is the brainwashing that you won't sleep well if you blow it off because you know there will be consequences. You imagine the phone buzzing, an irate senior or partner demanding a status update. Hours pass until your alarm goes off. You wish you just got it done last night. Next time you just work through it.

Perhaps you get shit for not killing yourself on all-nighters, yes. But either way, you eat shit, and no matter how good you are, the firm can drop you like THAT *snaps fingers*. So maybe not getting brain damage and depression as a result of sleeplessness is more worth it in the long run than occasionally frustrating a superior.

I see your point, but you WILL get canned much sooner if you start blowing off all night fire drills. Your reviews will get crappier immediately too. Biglaw long timers have little sympathy for your need for sleep and view your refusal as blatant insubordination.

This happened to me during my first year in BigLaw:

*Partner makes edits to a document* *Closes out and walks to my office*

Partner: CCS. I need you to look at the changes I made to the document. Here, pull it up. I want to show you something I did to the table.

Me: *Opens latest version*

Partner: Ok. Scroll down. Wait! Wrong version. Open the newest one. I think it is version 20.

Me: This is the newest version. It shows that it hasn't been worked on since two days ago.

Partner: *Mouth agape* Fuck my ass. What did you do?

Me: Nothing. I just opened it right now. You were standing right there.

*Partner runs to his office* *Doesn't realize he never saved the document he worked on* [I think he opened the doc from an email and just closed it out.]

[After about an hour or so with IT, he calls me into his office.]

Partner: CCS. I need you to stay late tonight. We need to work on this document together.

Me: Ok. I will be in my office. Let me know how I can help.

Partner: No! Bring the previous version of the document and the rulebook. Sit down and help me find references.

*two hours pass by and it is now 9 pm* *I have only done like .1 worth of billing, but I will be billing for the entire time*

Me: I am getting hungry. Want to order pizza or something?

Partner: NO!!! What I want is to finish this god damn document.

Me: Ok.

*It is finally 2 am and I probably only did about .3 billing*

Partner: Ok. Let's go home. Thanks for staying late.

It is more about the waste of resources. I billed 8 hours to a matter, when the reality is that I only did about .3 hours worth of billing. Also, the food shit pissed me off. The fucker wouldn't let me leave. I would get up to take a piss, and he would respond: "Where are going? You arn't leaving, are you?" Me: No, I am just going to take a piss.
