Very unorganized thoughts below. There are so many more to add so hopefully people jump in.

Do: Jays game/TFC game, AGO/ROM, wonder queen west/ossington/yorkville, drinks in trinity, workout class at Sweat & Tonic/Barry’s or another boujie studio, walk casa loma, high park, rent bikes on Toronto Island…

Eat and Drink: Broadview hotel, Baro, Piano Piano, Bar Poet, Superpoint, Patois, Alo Bar, Bar St. Lo, Ardo…

Late Night: Pizza Wine Disco, Parlour, Dukes Refresher, King Taps, Belfast Love, Locals Only, Pennies…

Also wanted ask for if meant Parlour or The Parlour. Big difference.. Parlour on Adelaide is 10/10 especially if you are in your late twenties / early thirties - their patio is unbeatable

If you wanna venture out you can go to niagra for a day the casino offers a bus that picks u up and drops you back off the same day if you wanna visit for a day and it's basically fee you just have to pay for 25 dollars worth of casino coins.

For the love of god, not this^

Hi boys & girls!

Joined a big firm (Big4) not long a go and starting to feel like I got a good grip on my current work.

I've always been very technical, so I think that the only thing I am missing now is making sales. (I really wanna make partner)

Can any seasoned lawyer share tips and materials (i.e. books) which can help?

Would it be a good idea to join a Social Club where potential clients spend time? (gym/tennis/paddel/events)

Any advice welcome!

Do sales expectations vary between strategy focused vs implementation focused consulting practices?

Context: in my previous gig I focused on strategy & I didn’t feel like Ms were being pushed to make sales all the time, but I was further away from that level. In my current (staff aug) gig, leaders seem to focus less on assessing whether the client really needs us/ how we can help, and more on making a sale. Is this difference a result of the type of work each team sells?
