Employee allegedly poops pants at work at start of shift, tells coworker she needs to go home because she just pooped her pants Is offered clean pair of underwear that coworker just happens to have on her. She declins and goes home, no shows the next couple shifts, and is fired. Claims she has IBS, sues for disability discrimination. We are fairly certain she never pooped her pants to begin with and was just trying to get out of work

What a wild world. As if not showing up to work the next couple shifts didn't factor into the decision to terminate. People these days.

Thanks!

I have one pro bono case that I kept when I left my firm to go in house. It’s a matter completely unrelated to my company and I have malpractice insurance through the nonprofit organization associated with the case. I’ve made clear to my client that I’m repping this client in my personal capacity. No one has asked me specifically about pro bono stuff at my company - if I know there’s no conflict of interest, is this something I should disclose? To whom should I disclose this?

What law firm is your favorite for run of the mill employment issues in the US and internationally (India, Australia, UK, Germany, etc.). I primarily use Littler because they have a broad reach and decent rates but I’m wondering whether Bird & Bird, Ogletree, or some other firm has similar pricing and as good or better quality work. So, who are you using and are you happy?

Recently received an offer from Ogletree to do only class action work. It'll be a big change for me, I'll be starting as a fourth year. Double my current salary, etc.

What will this be like? It's more of a niche, but lucrative, part of their practice, right? Will I really get good WLB like they claim? I have a nice 40 hour a week job right now, no billables.

I’m working at an insurance defense firm, trying to target my practice to L&E.

Problem-I would be shifting gears to Toxic Tort. I’m torn between my passion and the money. I’m a second year associate. WWYD?
