Hi Sharks,

I have got an offer with Capgemini.

They are postponing my joining stating a strange BGV pending issue.

Where do you go for information and discussion on Luxury brand and fashion?

Not really sure where to ask this so I guess here is where I’ve settled on. I woke up this morning to a text from my husband asking me to not be on my phone while he’s trying to fall back asleep in the night because he’s too sensitive to the light. Except it’s not like I want to be awake either? I just couldn’t sleep. He didn’t say anything while he was awake, which lasted about ten minutes based on his snoring. Does anyone else have this issue? Is there an easy compromise?

That moment when your "smart" plan to boost your hours this month by working the Labor Day weekend (thus turning down all the fun plans your friends made) becomes sitting on your hands & feeling dumb because all the partners are too busy to delegate anything. The worst kind of "off" day is one you planned to /wanted to work, but there's no billable work...

I’m currently at a small litigation boutique (3 partners/4 associates) and am looking to move on. I have an opportunity to go in house as a litigation attorney with a financial services company. Anyone have advice for the transition? What should I expect?

I work at a very small boutique and have represented several law firms in disciplinary proceedings and against claims in litigation. I recently learned that some very large law firms have in-house counsel offices and would be interested in parlaying this into joining one of those groups. Is that doable? Do most of those in-house groups hire from within the firm? Are lawyers considered part of the in-house group but are also practicing law for externals clients on behalf of the firm?

Leaving my firm after being here for over 5 years. Wish I had kept better track of the number of deals and projects I worked on and the emails I'd want to save. All the emails will be lost to me forever, which is an odd feeling.

Unique and thoughtful questions for associates to ask the partners during the associate’s year end review?

A question for the associates:
How should I talk to a new associate on my team (4 mos.) about critical issues including 1) spending too much time on a single project; 2) not meeting expectations in terms of number of billable hours; 3) botching easy procedural issues? This person has significant skills and writes very well. But their work is consistently turned in at the last minute, they have to be corrected on procedures regularly, and they never come talk to me without an invitation.

I applied for a government attorney job in September and got an interview. In late October I was told I wasn’t the top choice but was on the list and would definitely get the job eventually. There are many attorneys there who have that position. So it’s not like I’m waiting for one specific attorney to retire. I was told last week that there probably wouldn’t be an opening for me before March. Have other people had to wait a long time for a government job opening?
