Do you avoid going to shows and concerts that restrict use of electronics? I want to go to a comedy show during the week, but there's a disclaimer that they kick you out If you're checking phone/smart watch, etc. I'm also thinking of shows where they put your phone in one of those dumb locking bags

Just don’t check your phone! Nobody will die if you are out of pocket for a few hours.

Eh depends on the week, how busy i am, how worth it the event is. You have a little irresponsibly out of pocket budget to spend over the year. If you're strategic about when you take little risks you can stretch it pretty far.

My view is that in cases where concerts/shows that run the risk of stampede etc. I sure as hell want at least a phone on me to get help. Wasn’t even thinking about work. They can live without hearing back immediately.

This bowl was originally created for black attorneys in big law, but since it’s the only bowl for black attorneys, many black attorneys in other sectors have joined. Some people are apprehensive about starting another bowl for all black attorneys because it will take away from this bowl.

I recently lateraled into Big Law. Most of my colleagues are homegrown. My shift did involve a big change in practice area, and there's work that I haven't done before that I now have to do.

But, sometimes I feel stupid here, even for work which I have done previously. It's like I'm unable to understand instructions the first time around. And I have seen my colleagues getting annoyed by that. It's like I've become dumb. In my defence, I could say they're giving half assed instructions.
