I’m new to the law industry, and quite disappointed with what I’ve seen. Is it common (and accepted) that there is a caste system that the practice side always takes priority over legal operations (in almost everything)? How do you deal with this?

I’m sorry. Are you at a firm or legal dept and this is within that organization?

Yeah, this is typical. Firms very much operate on: lawyers make the money. There’s a reason only lawyers get bios on websites.

I think it’s over with my SO of 3 years. He tells me he loves me and wants to work things through but has lied to me several times in the past - some which were the same mistake three times. He knows he needs professional help (he’s also on antidepressants and has PTSD) but I don’t know how I can trust him again. Feeling completely broken - cannot believe the situation we’re in. I’m so sad my heart is breaking and I don’t know what to do

Thinking of switching employers. Do you think bigger retail stores (the ones that have several locations) are easier or harder to work at than little hole-in-the-wall grocery stores (which is all I've ever done)? It seems like the larger chain stores would have more downtime, but I'm wondering if anyone could give some input.
