I’ve been informed I’m being laid off due to a post acquisition synergy and after the initial shock wore off I’ve never felt more free in my entire career. I’ve come to realize I actually think I hate working in corporate and I’d like to use this opportunity to try something legal-adjacent. Anyone have any solid ideas for slight career pivots? Maybe something JD preferred? Know it is a tough market so any advice helps. TIA.

I told my boss about my ADHD in confidence because I was looking for a small accommodation (working from home x2 a week). I got it, but now I lowkey feel like she told other people in the office.

Very specific to retail and/or hospitality in-house roles: has anyone found a good solution for predictive scheduling? Our retail division has one set of software for scheduling and one for payroll, and neither of them can handle predictive scheduling compliance issues unless they’re used for both the scheduling and payroll functions.

Outside counsel has been prepping company witnesses for a trial in August. It is my subject area so I am supervising outside counsel. I did not, however, choose the counsel. He is doing a really awful job. Co counsel is better, but not great either. Higher ups love the firm… I do not want to micromanage, but I have genuine concerns about outside counsel’s ability to try this case. Trials are rare, and I just don’t think these guys have actually tried many cases. Cont. below…
