Airports Discussions

I want to lateral from the boutique firm I am currently at to big law. Went to a T-20, but never did a summer associate role at a law firm due to personal circumstances as a 2L. I’m currently having to bill 2K hours so an upside is that I’ve been able to do a lot of things as an A1. Is making this jump unrealistic? I’ve received some advice to network and cold email partners/ recruiters at these firms, but how could I stand out in a sea of messages?

I live in Frisco and have a 4PM DFW flight and a 1PM Uber to get me to the airport. Any concerns about me getting there on time or flights being cancelled due to flooding?

I have a third round interview this Thursday, but after I sent my availability, I booked a flight for work that is causing a problem. The interview ended up scheduled for 3:30-4:15, and I'm supposed to be on a 5pm flight out of LGA. Is there a reliably quiet place at LGA to do the interview (I don't have lounge access)? Would it be a bad idea to say my availability changed and I can't do that time slot anymore? Or should I cancel / rebook my flight to later at night?

All of us have two type of Mindsets.

Fixed and Growth.

How to change from a fixed to a growth mindset and stop avoiding any challenges coming our way. Be it Professional or Personal.
Asking this because I think I am kind of a perfectionist and yet to learn to value my small achievements . Sometimes feel bad and gets drown in sea of self doubt whenever a new task or challenging task comes my way. What if I fail is the thought and fear rules instead of what will I learn.

My partner was offered a job by the City of San Diego but upon reviewing their benefits it looks like they have opted out of Social Security withholding; instead he would have a mandatory pension deduction that is based on his age. It sounds like a terrible benefit structure. Has anyone worked for the City of SD who can give advice?
