Is anyone else getting a little nervous about air travel lately? I can't remember a time when there were so many stories of planes crashing or other safety incidents before.

It's still the most safe form of transport by a very long way. The only safer option is to not leave the house (but disconnect the gas as leaks kill more people than air travel every year, oh and don't go upstairs - more people die falling down stairs at home than air travel too)

Nervous enough that I think about the potential of a plane crash when I’m on a plane. Not nervous enough to impact my actions.

Boeing I’m not going that’s my motto

My family only flies on jetblue as they only use airbus (even on international trips, will fly to paris or london with them)

Of course you realise that boeing and air India are going to be absolute safest way to fly from today onwards as all safety checks will have been redoubled as a result

So, I've tried a few different positions and still hate practicing law BUT I was approached about a contract role that won't have billable hour requirements and I won't be steeped (I think) into the law firm's toxicity, so I'm wondering if it could be the closest thing to a 9 to 5 for law. Pay is hourly which seems weird, but I would have time to devote to hobbies and life generally. Has anyone been tempted by or accepted these contract opportunities, and what's your hot take?
