Any offices mandating vaccinations as a condition of employment? Or introducing it as a condition of employment for new joiners? Not happening widely yet but it can’t be far off at this rate… if clients ask to deal with vaccinated staff only

Yes, this is a VERY common practice now (I’m an employment attorney advising clients on this).

Interesting… and what about the potential risk for discrimination, like for people with a medical certificate that they can’t receive vaccinations or maybe on some religious grounds? A “necessity of the role” type of defence in case of any discrimination lawsuits?

Usually there is a process to get an exception as a reasonable accommodation for people unable to be vaccinated due to disability/sincerely held religious beliefs. Companies differ significantly in how to handle that though. United Airlines made headlines this week by announcing that people who sought religious-based exemptions from their mandatory vaccine policy would be placed on unpaid leave. That is an aggressive approach but obviously they are comfortable with it.

I joined a new team and have noticed something off with my Director over the last months (slurring speech, no show to calls or even full days of work).

In confidence she told me she can often smell alcohol. How can I help? I feel helpless. I’ve already lost someone to addiction and I can’t ignore this. Any advice?

What's the biggest health myth you've heard that you'd like to bust? Mine is that supplements are always a healthier option than prescription or OTC meds. A lot of the supplements on the shelf contain all types of unnatural ingredients and can still be harmful depending on the dosage.

I’ve suffered from workaholism for a long time. Thanks to a lot of great self help books and therapy, I’m no longer putting work on a pedestal and I’m spending a lot more time on self care and my marriage. But, unfortunately, I am now getting withdrawals, because my body is used to the daily adrenaline of throwing myself into work. It’s this terrible feeling of like anguish/unease in my gut, but I don’t have anything I’m worried about- it’s like my body wants to find something to worry about.

I started a new job recently and then had my PTSD seriously triggered, plus a panic attack. Felt so on edge and low on emotional resources for over a week that I wasn’t myself and apparently really rubbed a few people the wrong way so I was called in for a talking to 😣. I let people know there were some personal things going on, but didn’t mention the PTSD—very unsure if that’s something to share, or if I’d be judged for it or... I don’t even know. Has anyone else dealt with PTSD and had it impact them at work, and how did you handle it?

Practicing 11 years at larger regional firm. Experience is L&E, complex commercial litigation, products, contract disputes, trade secret litigation (really varied on the litigation side). What types of in-house positions might I be qualified for? Considering a switch.

Been on my mind for a while, all thoughts welcome!
So I’m gonna assume that most of us in L&E are in it for the passion, otherwise we would have taken corporate commercial or M&A for the money.
So… where do you see your ‘ultimate resting spot’? Would it be 1) global head of L&E law at a big company, having to always be under the global GC, or 2) just collect enough experience to take the GC route? This of course has way more money, but work with stuff that doesn’t excite you as much, or 3)…?
