Had a dude like that today in the lounge at LGA - had his airpods on and was talking to the guy next to him at the top of his lungs... #gah

If you can summon flatulence on demand, then it’s highly likely that the imbecile will move. 😊

I had my PM 5 on-site interviews at Google yesterday! It was great except for my last interview. My estimation was maybe a 5/10. A few things happened: it was introduced with only 10 minutes, there was a surprise extra person shadowing, and my interviewer turned her camera and mic off twice turning that part of call. I wasn't sure if I should keep going or wait and late I day, I couldn't stop from being thrown. Is there any value in letting my recruiter know that the interview didn't go well?

Stop shaming people for leaving on time. Working overtime every nite benefits no one if you’re exhausted. It’s not a badge of honor either. Work on your time management skills.

So stuck. What do I do? I joined this firm a year ago (4 yrs exp total) to grow/get more court/client exposure. Then 2 more-experienced associates were hired, pandemic, & all cases are divided between the other 2. I have no defined tasks except deficiency letters or the odd pro bono case. Boss claims it's mentoring. I still need to meet bill req.

Last wk Boss said I'll do more & my work was good, but today said I can't 2nd chair bc I don't have experience. I'm doing less now than my prior firm.
