Whole Foods Specialty Bag - $9.99

About $50 worth of cheese, plus a completely unnecessary bag of crackers to eat it on.

The Parmesan Reggiano has a best by date on about a week, but I assume it’ll keep fine in the fridge, right? It’s been aged 24 months already…

Taking Heat for Senior Associate’s Mistake?

Third-year associate, working on a case team with a partner and a fifth-year. Partner at one point sends an email saying to draft a motion and auxiliary documents in a particular way. Fifth-year drafts his part of the documents in the opposite way, I mention to him that I think partner wanted it done other way, fifth-year tells me to ask partner about it in my next email. I ask, and partner writes back sort of aggressively, saying “I thought we planned to do it X way,” with his earlier email attached.

What am I supposed to do in this situation? Should I, in my initial email, have said “Fifth-year asked me to ask you if we should do this X way?” Seems stupid to have to take my time (at $1,000/hr) pointing fingers internally, but it’s my first time working with this partner and I don’t want to get a bad rep.
