How can you remove these E-clips? Would a needle nose plier work or do you have any other tool suggestions?

If you take a small screwdriver you can carefully put it in the space around the top of the clip and wiggle it off. The thing to be careful about is that if you do it too quickly those suckers can go flying off and then you'll be searching for them with a magnet. So use one hand to kind of block that from happening while you wiggle with the screwdriver with the other hand. When you do it once or twice it becomes second nature.

The e clips I recently worked with didn’t require a ton of force. I would avoid metal tools so you don’t gouge the pulley/gear. A flat plastic block should be able to push it off

propane torch will cause the material to expand

A pick tool in the gap normally works well, pop a rag behind it as they tend the fly off

I’ve practiced litigation in DC for about 5+ years at a larger plaintiffs’ firm, and am considering a switch to a defense firm. Is there any insight to how many billable hours this would require, and how much time that would actually be? For reference, the firm has a 1900 billable hour requirement and the partner said I would have “no problem” fulfilling that based on the work they have.

Need a sanity check here.

When I joined my current company, we were on a quarterly bonus structure with guaranteed payouts each quarter. This was, in fact, how the recruiter said he could meet my salary request.

The company just announced we are moving to annual payouts only, with no payments for 2023 until May 2024. There are no raises happening.

This amounts to 12% less money in my pocket in 2023 plus inflation.

Is this standard, or should I be looking for opportunities elsewhere?
