A partner at my firm just invited me and my SO to dinner with him, his senior associate, and the senior associate’s SO. I’m fairly new to the firm, but I’m told the partner doesn’t do this often and he’s fairly private about his matters and clients. Could this be a sign he’s bringing me into the fold? Or something else? My apologies in advance for the naïve question. I’ve been to many “get to know you” lunches, but never dinner with spouses.

I'm a front end developer with 5 years of experience. I'm looking for sponsorship visa job in UK or US. Can anyone please refer me to any company.

How do you recommend finding recruiters who specialize in a particular geographic area? (Tampa Bay specifically)

Currently a JR PM at an ad agency in NYC. Working on social media for my client. Really don't enjoy it. Previous experience is in experiential marketing and really loved that because I knew humans would interact, touch, and feel the things I helped create.
Not attached to advertising, I crave work that makes me think critically and isn't redundant. I am a huge people person and love interacting with people. I am wondering if anyone has career paths or style of work that is more inline with me 🙂

Band teachers... how do your virtual band classes work? I’ve been doing music theory with students via google classroom and kids constantly ask to play instruments. It seems like a nightmare to have 30 kids with instruments online because of the delay in sound. Help plzzzz

Managing Partner encourages everyone to speak up and offer their opinions.. Yet, when you do, it better align with his or else you’re flat out wrong or ridiculous 🙄

How did you know when to quit? / what did you need to quit?

I do not have any offers to lateral or whatsoever but I don’t think I can stay at my current job for much longer. I’m at a “boutique” law firm (with Big Law partners) outside of the US.

I lateralled into biglaw from a compliance job a couple of months ago because I was given a "too good to be true" opportunity (2 years out of law school), and I have regretted it ever since. Has anyone successfully left biglaw after one year and gone in house or boutique? (Please no nasty comments, we all make mistakes when that much money is involved). I can afford the pay cut thankfully, just worried about the ability to find work.

Can someone please tell me what “suitussy” means

HELP! I’ve been contacted by a small private security firm who wants me to be their “on call” counsel. They describe it as a lot of contract review, drafting NDAs, etc. but also being there if/when they need to license a vehicle, defend civil suit, etc. It’s overwhelming but sounds like a really great opportunity. I have enough background to be comfortable with contracts and litigation, but don’t want to get myself into a mess. Has anybody else ever had a job like this?

Any paralegals and/or legal assistants that may be interested in 10-15 hours of freelance work over the next couple weeks? I’m an employment attorney and HR consultant with my own virtual practice and I am in need of temporary support over the next few weeks.

Ethics and Side Hustles: With side hustles for everyone apparently 'a thing' for everyone now, I took a look at content writing on Upwork. Putting aside the employment contract stuff, I am having my doubts about whether lawyers can actually produce content.

For example, there was a job proofreading recipes - would a lawyer be on the hook if an allergen wasn't caught? Likewise, writing informational articles about financial services - could that come back on a lawyer in some way?

Congrats everyone! This week was terrible with omicron, schools closed, backlogged work from the holidays, general malaise from two years of a pandemic, etc. It might have been the most difficult week of my career so far. But, we made it. Kudos to everyone. Here’s hoping that next week is better.
