I’m a first-year associate. I love tattoos; the ones I have are covered. I want to get one on the back of my neck. I don’t face clients except on Zoom, is it still a bad idea? Would love to hear everyone’s thoughts.

Do you have long hair ? Can you cover it if needed

Depends a lot on who your clients are . Corp clients will see as negative. Defending rappers against gun possession charges ? May be a positive.

Hi! Personally, I have no qualms with tattoos. I don't think it's a bad idea. Go for it

I am trying to write a stock letter to send to parents everyday that their child does not come to virtual learning sessions.

For some of my students this is everyday due to parent work schedules and disability issues.
Is anyone else having this trouble? What are you saying to parents to cover yourself?

Does anyone have family members who constantly demand money because they feel like you’re rich now because you’re a lawyer?

I’ve given a detailed summary of all of my expenses yet every month one family member in particular comes to me for rent money (not some, the full amount, and they refuse to get a job).
