Not sure if this is the right place to post but I have really been struggling with work lately. I was diagnosed with ADHD in the winter and prescribed adderall. While it helps me get up and start my day, I still completely lack motivation to actually do anything even as simple as responding to an email. Prior to the ADHD diagnosis I battled with a panic disorder for about the last decade and was prescribed xanax. However my doc didn’t feel comfortable with both scripts so I no longer (cont)

How to “double-check” on stimulants? I know I need to triple check things all the time but never actually do it on stims. It’s like it makes you DO DO DO without thinking and pausing to reflect!

In the U.S. where we are approaching 5M cases, 165K deaths, we are also having a 10 day rally with 250K people who are openly flaunting not wearing masks.

Does anyone know anything about auditory processing disorder? I had my hearing checked, and it came back normal. But something is still off. I never had hearing issues until I started working in PA. Telephone calls are the worst for me. I keep saying "I'm sorry, can you repeat that?"

I am currently a HR Generalist for a small aerospace company, located in CA. I have been in a generalist role for a little over 4 years now and before that, I did recruiting/safety for about 3 years. I am now looking into getting my HR Certification, but am stuck in between the PHR-CA or the SHRM-CP. Does anyone have any recommendations they can give me?

Hello all, anyone know people who are seeking Azure, AWS, or web design professionals? Always looking to help people in these areas. Thanks in advance ;)

Anyone know what the pay is like at Wingate, Russotti, Shapiro?

I find these discussions very interesting. At least from a European point of view, it's Democrats for the win (and yeah, Biden ist not the best candidate, but the lesser evil, of course). But then again, I guess we live in socialism.. I have to agree, it really sucks with everyone having health care, no one getting shot on streets or having to live on the streets...

As a mid to senior associate in white collar investigations, what is your day-to-day like? How often do you write briefs, write memos, take deps (traditional litigation stuff)? What do you do when you’re not doing traditional litigation stuff?

What v50 firms do you think will not match?

This one’s for the boys. Where do we get our suits?

If a major big law firm lowered their annual billable target significantly (like maybe to 1750), would other firms follow? Would it be the most popular firm recruiting-wise?

Partners/counsels: have you been able to tell if your associate is not handling the whole WFH situation well?

I sometimes wonder what goes on under the skin of those "perfect, well-dressed, good-looking, high-performing, never-stressed" usually male attorneys. I get the impression that many are hiding things.

Any other remote first years incredibly lonely? I have friends and family (single) but can pretty much only see them during the weekends, which go by way too quickly. Not much of a life….

Biglaw 8th year associates - what was your all in comp last year? Trying to assess whether I make close to market and special bonuses are throwing me off.

One partner is driving me insane. I CANNOT work with him. We are far enough in the case that it would take a lot of time for someone to take over for me but still early enough that the case will be going for another 2 years. Has anyone ever asked to be pulled from a case and is there a way to distance myself from this partner without hurting my reputation? 2nd year lit associate, partner is a jr partner in a different office but we cross staff a lot. TIA!

Hi all! Staff Attorney who was hired to do something very specific at a BL firm. My manager has been very restrictive in what I’m allowed to do for fear that it’ll get in the way of my speciality work, even though all the partners and associates love me and are always asking me to work on deals with them. Because it’s been slow my hours have been down and my manager is back tracking and saying that I can do whatever I want. What do I when it comes to review time?

Some partners are so stupid. In a free market system, if you want the good associate to work for you, you need to be a nice person. Otherwise, I have enough partners to feed me work and you’re the source of your own problem.

Do junior associates at large firms ever travel to other cities/countries? If so, under what circumstances?

Law schools in Toronto - I am currently working as a Senior Auditor at EY & finished my CPA modules in less than 12 months & successfully passed CFE, September 2021 (Fasttrack) while working full time. I am really interested in getting into a top law school here in Toronto but unfortunately I had a low CGPA (3.15) from undergrad due to some unfortunate incident, mostly impacted my grades. I strongly feel i can score 170+ on LSAT; question DO I EVEN STAND A CHANCE TO GET INTO ANY LAW SCHOOL

Wondering about potential exit/in-house opportunities for different practice groups. I’m currently in big law and choosing between general corporate deal work (M&A/PE) and tech transactions. Do either of these give better in-house (or other) opportunities later on?

Hi boys & girls!

Joined a big firm (Big4) not long a go and starting to feel like I got a good grip on my current work.

I've always been very technical, so I think that the only thing I am missing now is making sales. (I really wanna make partner)

Can any seasoned lawyer share tips and materials (i.e. books) which can help?

Would it be a good idea to join a Social Club where potential clients spend time? (gym/tennis/paddel/events)
