I think my bosses don't know what to do with me because they know that they can't use partnership as a carrot, and they likely also have a sense that the stick of firing me isn't going to be effective either.
But then I also don't know what to do with myself ...
Mine acknowledged that I don't want to go for partnership but is quite happy for to keep on doing good work and billing for it and also introducing a chunk of the work I do. I think I'm probably still the highest billing senior associate in the department which helps.
Why would firing you be ineffectual? Would you still just turn up?
No, I'll just retire and kill myself when the money runs out.
Haha at MIC
Less heh at PP
