Emotional Survival for Law Enforcement book by Kevin Gilmartin. This is a great book for spouses to read. I read it and it was a little slow in the beginning. My wife read it and it helped her to understand the Law Enforcement mentality a little better. Give it a try guys! Did anyone else read it? What did you think?

For me, it was a great way to gain insight into the struggles of police officers and their families, which helped me empathize more with their situation. My wife read it too and said it provided her with a better understanding of the profession. Highly recommend it!

Omg I've been needing something like this. My husband is in law enforcement and as you know, it's so difficult for family (myself included) to understand the job. I'm going to check this out

Want to get a sense check. Typical English firm salaries in London are about 70% Cravath (unless you're at one of the US firms that benchmarks to Cravath scale offices). 2PQE is around 165k USD + 30k bonus assuming 1800 billables. So comparing at a firm where you roughly bill 1900-2000 a year, you lose out, but if you bill 2200+, that's comparable?

Thinking aloud here - if you can find that 2000-billing firm, no sense staying in that payscale unless you have a shot at equity?
