Dude. I Tried to work through Covid. Big mistake. It turns you dumb as a rock. Take a knee

I’m going through this right now. Agreed.

Op there’s a COVID timecode so you don’t burn your PTO. Search on DNET. I don’t care how junior you are - you are a human first, and a practitioner second. We basically have no bench, so please don’t worry about being laid off - you need to rest ❤️

Please don’t. Your work will replace you in a heartbeat, but you will not be able to replace your health. You need to look out for yourself and for those who love you, your work won’t. So please take care of your health and make decisions that let you win in the long run

I'd be surprised if there aren't corporate-wide protections for recovery if you have COVID - don't let people bully you about work when you need to focus on getting better.

When I had covid, I told my team. They let me rest up and covered for me when I missed a morning call.

Let people know and let yourself recover. Ask for help. People may surprise you with kindness

Happy Friday. Just a reminder of a few things:

- ADHD is a disability, but it’s not the end of the world
- give yourself a break. Your brain needs it more than you realize
- medication is not a cure-all treatment. Medication + diet + exercise + self-organization is the key.
- ADHD causes us to feel emotions stronger than the average person.
- failure is inevitable, but so is success. Act accordingly, and be kind and fair to yourself
- life is hard, but that’s… wait, what was I saying? 😂😎❤️

Accepted an offer of employment with a mid-sized firm to begin in a couple of months. I’ve always wanted to shoot for big law but haven’t had the opportunity thus far.

Would it be an issue to shoot for a big law opportunity in the interim? I know how this looks and sounds, so I definitely don’t want to set a precedent that I deal in bad faith.
