Former MMM associate here, my friends who are still at MMM says the attorney headcount is right around 100 attorneys, but it was closer to 200 this past January (lots of other attorneys have left without it being picked up by the legal news). Morale is really bad, and people are questioning if the acquisition is going to really happen.

Peyton and Eli are the only Mannings that will ever matter

Don’t forget Arch and Archie.

Who left?

My mom

You mean after the group of lawyers who left in January? Morris Manning is a very good firm, but pretty limited to Atlanta. Probably losing people who wish to work on a National or International platform.

How much do you tip in an higher priced restaurant? Went for dinner last night for 2. The bill was $220ish and I tipped 30%. My friend said I tipped too much and that he would've only tipped 10-15% because the price was higher. Thoughts?

Hi guys currently I'm working in a project with very stringent timelines. Sometimes we need to put more than 13-14 hrs each day. There are 4 members in my team. Two are involved in database prt and me and my lead are involved in the front end and middle layer prt. Somehow my lead is not at all pleased with my work. And even if I try to talk to him for something he is completely rude. Sometimes it makes me that I m completely useless. Even the other team members are following the lead

I’m getting pushback on boundaries I’m setting about additional matters and marketing work from my firm when I’ve been billing 60-75 hours per week for the last 6 weeks, and I’m still behind on my work. I feel like it’s reasonable to not kill myself further to fit in more/turn things around faster at this point, but am I being unreasonable? I expect my workload to remain at this level through the end of the year at least.
