If I had to choose between:

A) winning $1.2b in the lottery

I’m choosing option B every time. Never underestimate the power of having a personal brand online.

Lateraled to a new state and studying for the bar (licensed elsewhere). Firm only gave me 3 weeks to study so just now starting. My partner doesn’t “get it” and is struggling to understand why this is all-encompassing. Any advice for getting him to understand what I need these next few weeks?

I’m currently a junior associate in a boutique litigation firm handling IP. I’ve taken a depo already, will argue in court next month and by all accounts, I am great at it. But I’m miserable. I find the games with opposing counsel exhausting and I despise writing briefs (even if I’m good at it). My pre-law school job was in public relations and I chose litigation because I like to win, but I’m now realizing I like success more than the win-lose. Feeling lost… should I move to transactional?

Just got let go and my manager said part of it was because I was looking for other jobs. I didn't look for other jobs at work, so I'm not sure how they could have known that unless a coworker snitched on me. Is it worth it to try and find out who or should I just leave it? Can't deny that I'm seriously pissed off about it.

$1.5M client and new “profitability tool” showing %0 profit. Credit split 50/50 btw 20 year attorney/equity partner (JEP) and a much more senior/connected EP (SEP). Both SEP and JEP developed separate workstreams unrelated to the other. SEP‘s was terminated 3 years ago and only accounts for $200K trail off of the $1.5M. SEP’s salary is 3 times JEP’s. Profitability tool “costs” are not transparent, suspect SEP’s high salary is a factor. Anything (other than typical overhead) to ask about?

I am from GDS consulting.
I joined from another firm to GDS when I just became a CA with a 42 percent increment from my peanuts in oct 2020 . That got revised by 24 percent in oct 2021 and now by 10 percent in mid year. A lot of my colleagues became managers. They might be getting 18 lakh plus. One of the senior 4 like me is getting 2.5 lacs more than me.
I am not saying that I have the best package, but I remember where I came from. Things have could been better, but they are not bad either:)
