One time, my friend's boss left his computer on when he left the office, so the friend swapped the M & N keys on his keyboard - and then went into the computer's registry and swapped them for real. His boss (who touchtypes) was typoing for *days* before he figured it out. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

HAHAHA awesome

Junior associate at a V10 doing Corporate work. I just received a secondment opportunity with a firm client. It would mainly be helping out on their year-end disclosure and annual meeting process for the next 3-4 months.

I'm pretty satisfied with my big law experience. Obviously the hours can be rough, but I've been working with good ppl and getting good exp. My reviews have been solid and I've had no real issues during my 1+ year at my current firm.

Would you accept this secondment?
