Try being over 50, 20 years truck driving experience, 2 million miles, Accident free. And I can't get a local job. I apply daily for many months for local driving jobs, and when I do get a call. They offering OTR, Which I paid my dues on the road. I an my family want to spend more time together. So Why can't I get local at 53 years old having an amazing career as a CDL driver, but only offered OTR. Discrimination is the real factor.

That’s crazy. I would be looking at companies looking for dedicated drivers. I don’t drive but I have worked in the logistics field some for Target. Our dedicated companies are almost always hiring.

I’m in-house at a small company (60 people), started right out of law school about 5 years ago. We had a legal team of 5 then. Everyone has left and we just hired a new GC. I went from $70k to $100k a little over a year ago. I am expecting an offer from a firm doing business law work but think this might be an opportunity to go to my current employer and ask for a significant raise, with new offer in hand. Any thoughts or advice going into this?

What law firm is your favorite for run of the mill employment issues in the US and internationally (India, Australia, UK, Germany, etc.).

So, who are you using and are you happy?

Name the most ridiculous micro-managing by partners that you experience.

I’ll go first: MP told me that on initial emails, I am always to start with “Hello [name],” but after the initial email, I am not to address her by name again in the same thread. Initial greeting can only be “Hello [name] ” because just first name is too brisk and a “Hi [name]” is too informal. Had a 5 minute, in depth conversation as to why she prefers it this way…
