Ever had an attorney randomly pull food that they somehow squished in their shoe during long court days. One day, it was taking forever in federal court due to the COVID backlog. An attorney was sitting at a table across from where I was sitting. Kept noticing him reaching down like he was scratching his foot then would bring his hand to his mouth. Very strange. Court concluded and I saw him by his car taking off his shoe and pulling a squished baggy with half a sandwich out of it.

Maybe this is the socialist in me but shouldn’t Moderna and Pfizer waive their patent exclusivity for their Covid vaccines? Don’t we have a moral obligation for the world to vaccinate as many people as quickly as possible?

It blows my mind that many countries won’t be able to vaccinate most of their people until 2023. There should be access to vaccine generics

Will get COVID vaccine today. That means party is an option at b school?

What applications/process have you installed since the start of COVID-19 to electronically gather employee conifential information? My client is too small to have an HRIS or electronic document storage/collection. Thinking of using a shared Google Drive but worry about how confidential/locked down that will be. One item they are struggling with is getting I9 documentation since a lot of the office staff are remote. Any suggestions are welcomed!

I’m ready for my embryo transfer! Date is set for next week! Very excited!! After being canceled due to COVID I was sure something else would be wrong.

Who here has had covid themselves, and how was it for you?

For those with spouses or family members who feel differently about COVID, what do you do? My husband and I have been on the same page up until now with the Delta variant.

Ok. I am teaching music in person and when we have a case of COVID in the school, I push into the classroom for 10 days. Are there music websites that are free that I can go to for quick lessons when I’m asked to teach in the classroom. I was told today with 5 minutes to prepare that we had a case, I couldn’t teach in my room and I couldn’t do the ukulele unit I had planned. I had to think on the fly and quickly came up with a BrainPop for them. I’d like to find a few more music sites.

NDAs for Nannies? I was wondering how everyone who is doing some work from home during covid handles in-house caregivers? Obviously we all take all steps to protect confidential information and realistically a caregiver isn't going to be exposed to anything we do, but does anyone require an NDA just to be on the safe side? (I dont have an in home caregiver yet, but just thinking about it.)

Up until last weekend, I was in the recruitment process for a summer associate role at EY-Parthenon Strategy, London UK. They sent me an email saying the program was cancelled due to covid, but I've heard nothing about this from any other source, so I'm a little suspicious...

Any NYC big law firms heard anything about target hours being prorated this year? My firm has 2K target that was cut to 1800 in 2020 for Covid. So far no word on whether it will happen again, given that we’re still remote and challenges WFH (especially for associate parents) are still the same.

Is Gary Vee still saying that all of their layoffs were not covid related? Vayner folks, is that true?

What happens if a employee discloses his performance has suffered because corona virus got him depressed and he’s been drinking?

Film industry fishies! After covid, what is the average of projects your company handles each year?

Hi, I did interview with amazon.

Round 1: HR round. cleared.

Round 2: Hiring manager round. Went well.

After 2 weeks they said Role no longer available. It was L5 supply chain role. This happened in April. Can I apply again in Amazon? I joined a company 3 months ago, does it look bad in CV to leave again in 3 months? I hv a 6 month gap in career in 2019 due to lay off (covid). total exp 9 yrs. SCM exp 6 yrs.

How are other people approaching inventory counts during covid, for people with 6/30 year end clients? Need ideas. Anyone thinking of doing a virtual audit of the count?

Got a client who’s asked for a POV on how covid-19 will affect buys across ALL verticals & channels. Of course it’s urgent. Can we please share what our companies are saying? Teamwork time, folks.

Any boutique Regulatory consultants or firms out there? Looking for TMF QC and PV

Thinking about getting a MBA, partly for personal enrichment but also for professional reasons. I know schools all have different “cognates” but do people have recommendations that pair well with corporate/securities/financial legal practice fields?

Just want to say that I've learned a lot in this bowl! Really grateful for people posting questions, do's and don'ts and for the community responding!

Is anybody using WACOM CINTIQ Pro 24"? I am contemplating getting one but wondering if I will be able to use a mouse/tablet along with it. I heavily use InDesign and wonder if I can use a mouse/tablet when I need to without unplugging it. Thanks in advance!

How is the variable paid in pwc? Is it given straightway from joining?

An old attorney didn’t realize White Claw was an alcoholic beverage until he showed up for a hearing chugging one down. Thought it was a flavored mineral water. The kicker is that when he met with clients, he offered bottles of water or White Claws. Guess there are no laws with White Claws.

One of the Of Counsel attorneys at my firm will ask me to do research, then send me like 10-20 page emails (multiple per day) where he just copies/pastes the statute into the email like "I think this may be helpful." No. No it's not.

A partner asked me to talk to a potential new client. A small business looking to get certified as a CBE. I told the partner that the company was put off by our rates. But really, I told the potential new client that the government's CBE office has free resources including one on one guidance through the process.

Most creative excuse for popping positive on meth, fetty, and subs when the Judge wants a drug screen. “My boyfriend gave me tacos that must have been laced.” Oh and she blew a .140. So warning - don’t accept tacos unless you see them made.

I defended a deposition the other day. The court reporter swears in my client, “Do you swear that everything you say shall be the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth?” My client looks at me and says, “Who’s Shelby?”

The setup. Recent trial where OC was newly minted and should have referred this case out due to the complexity. OC asked both the treating doctor along with a doctor being used as an expert witness this question.
“Isn’t it true that if a person dies in their sleep, they won’t realize it until morning”
It was then I knew the jury would rule in my favor. Total shitshow.
