I am about to take a bold step and resign with immediate effect from a law firm I joined in June this year. What a horrible place! I don't have a job lined up, but I have just registered my legal consultancy practice. I will offer litigation support and IP registrations ans advice. Any tips from other consultants?

Question. What do we think would happen if men and women all competed together? I know in many sports, the best men are going to be up there. But it’s not like we can’t keep track of overall winners and winners by division. I read up on some history and it seems like women’s sports only appeared after women started beating most of the men.

I’m not sure if I’m overthinking this but I (25M) have a feeling a friend(23F) is hitting on me. Whenever we hang out she’ll get really close and keep touching/poking me whenever we need to turn corners, cross the block, etc because she’s the navigator. When we sit next to each other on the bench she’ll be up on my personal space up. Just a lot of shoulder to shoulder touching. I had other female friends this touchy as well but I wouldn’t think anything of it because some people are touchier 1/2
