I have a hard and fast rule that I don’t like to schedule things on Monday mornings or Friday afternoons. Because people are either getting over the weekend, or getting their weekend on. In either event, people seem to be less productive at those times.
I have told this to all my legal assistants. So what does one of them do? She schedules her monthly file review for Friday afternoon at 2:30. I’m pissed about it, but what the hell, if that’s the only time you have, let’s do it...
So I’m getting ready to go to the office at 2:30 for the meeting, and she sent me a message that she’s running behind, and she wants to do the meeting at 3:30. So why not just schedule it for Saturday afternoon, during my favorite football game? Holy shit. What a way to end a shitty short week.
End of rant.
