Just got a job in the house at a local government agency my previous job was in a rural municipality I did primarily contracts there as I will do here but the pace was incredibly slow and it was not super sophisticated. Also because of covid I ended up just not really talking to people for a long time. Any tips on ways to make sure I succeed? I'm particularly worried about the logistics of gathering requirements for contracts from stakeholders.

I am scheduled to fly from NYC to Mumbai via Paris next Wednesday (Jan 5) for a ~10 day trip. Have any of you, your family, friends, etc. flown a similar route (I.e. from US to India via Europe) in the past week? If so, what is the arrival process (Covid test, quarantine requirements, etc.)?

I have been working remotely since covid getting nothing but positive reviews. My company is not remote friendly and is now telling me I have to return to the office or I lose my job. I just found out a co-worker had a remote position created for them, without a job posting, without an interview and without the experience required (normally a license or certification would be mandatory). I understand life isn’t fair but is there an ethical problem with this?

Hello Everyone! Thanks for joining this LGL bowl. Looking forward to connecting, discussing, and sharing knowledge of LGL matters.

I am fairly new to LGL (10 months in). I had been practicing criminal law before. I really like LGL because I get to work on something new every day and most of the questions posed to me require creative thinking/solutions. But I do find myself feeling discouraged many days bc there is just so much I don’t know. I understand things will get better and may come easier to me with time and experience. How long did it take for you to feel comfortable and feel like you have a handle on most issues?

I have an interview coming up I recently had an interview for a job, they told me they were unable to offer me the position the position went down, it now is active again online. Am I right to feel a little bit perturbed by this.
