Honestly being aware of your surroundings and thinking through what you would do in certain scenarios is going to be more important than most things you can carry.

Bia Movement’s knife ring!

The defense kitty! It’s a key ring like item and very sharp. You can put your hand around it and use it to poke someone in the eyes. I kept one on my key ring for years and truly felt safer with it

Just get a weapon and learn how to use it.

What is considered a “large” caseload in employment litigation? I work at a large L&E boutique law firm and handling about 14-15 active litigation cases in state/federal court or arbitration. Some of these matters are multi-plaintiff and multi-defendant cases, but none are class actions. This does not include any matters I am handling in the charge stage or in pre-litigation. Not sure if that’s a typical caseload or not?

Is there anything I can do to lessen her pain and preserve the friendship?

But, I do not have a degree. It's harder to find companies value skills than a degree. Can someone refer to a company that values skills not degree?

This is more of a rant than anything but advice is welcome. I’m so fed up with my manager micromanaging everything. We miss client deadlines frequently because deliverables are backlogged under their review, they make comments on things they weren’t in client discussions about, and won’t listen when told client wanted it X way. I’m at a loss for what to say to them because I’ve tried repeatedly to fix this to no avail.
