How do you wear slides in the office?
Grateful that such cute flat options are acceptable and fashionable and won’t give me blisters on my heel… but I find that they need a barrier or something so they don’t stick or slap against my heel when I walk but obviously can’t wear socks…. Any advice??

Idk the real answer but I wear those little pantyhose socks just on the front half of my feet and scrunch my toes to hold on to the shoes for less flappage.

That sounds just as uncomfortable as shoes with a back! Haha

Although this is an attorney bowl (or maybe because it is and I believe we are an intelligent bunch, both intellectually and emotionally speaking), I post this here in addition to the startup bowl: I am looking to start a clothing brand that either donates or invests a portion of profits in innovative companies started by diverse founders. This means at minimum, PoC and LGBTQ+. I welcome any thoughts on this from folks in this bowl and any ideas you may have that would make my idea better.

Took my first vacation (1 week) in over a year to visit family. Was bombarded by emails from one partner asking me to complete non-time sensitive motions, which he hasn’t even bothered to review. This is my third firm in three years (first I left as I was severely underpaid, second I left for a 100k increase in salary), but this lack of respect for my boundaries has made me want to move again once I’ve completed 18 mos. Bad? They don’t do this to the other associates (all male).

So I posted a bit ago about getting IV hydration and vitamins. You guys gave me the courage to try it. After I had it done, I didn't feel much of a difference and figured I just spent a bunch of $ to relax for an hour in a massage chair. 🤷🏼‍♀️ But this has been the best week I've had energy-wise in the last seven months. And I kind of wish I could post before/after pics because apparently I was very bloated. I've been focusing on keeping up with my hydration at home. Thx ladies!

Those of you with the Beis work tote (not the mini), do you think it’s too big of a bag for day to day carrying during a month long trial?

Anyone else deal with others passing judgment because of your age? I’m 30, married, and carry myself in a professional manner but still deal with random comments related to my age. Today I was complimented for my “maturity” for how I responded to a problem and it was shared that a partner or two also commented on my maturity. It rubbed me the wrong way and although these comments are less frequent now than when I first started my career, I still hear them and it’s bothersome.

This is not law-related and I’m sorry but could use advice! I am 27 and have been single since I was 22 which makes me feel weird, especially because my longest relationship didn’t last a year. I was thinking about getting on dating apps but in addition to feeling chubby and unattractive, I have this weird dating void. I’m pretty content alone (may just be because I’m used to it). I don’t want to write off dating, but am terrified! Is my situation super weird? Any advice? 😭

I was fired last month after a short time at the company. I knew things weren't going well- it was a terrible culture fit & I was also planning my exit strategy. They wouldn't give me specific reasons other than to vaguely say it was performance related. I agree I made a few dumb mistakes (none of any dire consequence) but what kills me is that I tried really hard. I don't want to change careers but I have a deep seeded fear that no matter how hard I try, I will never be a "good attorney".
