Hey guys, is anyone able to provide insights on transitioning to a “internal strategy” role at a social media tech company? What kind of skill sets can I achieve and what are the exit opps if I end up not liking it? Seems like this role has a bit of “planning work” as well, but not entirely sure if that should be avoided?

What's the best way to transition out of a role and move into something different. I'm aligned to QA but I have experience in Product/Project management but not getting any interviews for those roles.

6th year of practice. I need to get out of insurance defense. Probably would prefer to be out of litigation in general. I also need to get out of south Florida/Florida in general because my salary is not great compared to the high cost of living in my city and I haven’t been able to find any other reasonable paying job. Been looking on and off for 5 years. Prospects are extremely poor. My question is: what are some good JD-preferred career paths or lateral opportunities I should explore?

I’m a 30yo college grad who spent most of my 8 years in nyc in the food industry. It was comfortable and I liked it. But after being on unemployment during covid and making more than I ever had as a barista, I can’t go back to food. Seeing what that extra $600 a week did for my life and stress has changed me and I want to make that much money all the time.

Does anyone else have experience transitioning from the food industry to an office job at an older age?

In prosecution, if a patent attorney does not try to remove prior art cited by an examiner (eg a 130 affidavit to assert an exception under102(b)(1)(A)), but instead makes arguments to overcome the art, may the attorney made an admission that bars removing the art later in prosecution. Just received such a transfer case, looking for options.
