How do you deal with a toxic colleague?

Everything he says is condescending. He's quite large and seems to be negative overall.

So, a year later, still mourning losing my work husband to another employer!! Nobody compares to his work ethic and nobody understands me like he did! Who's been your favorite coworker in your career?

We need to make colored shirts more acceptable at work. Pastels, faded colors, and specially light blue only looks good on people without skin pigmentation. 😞

Hi all, new here. I just landed an HR position and I have my first HR meeting on Wednesday. My manager asked me to come with a fun fact about myself. Argh I hate doing these things. What’s a good fun fact that’s not too cliche?

Question, if your work told you you had to sleep with your boss or be fired would you comply?

I hate working on commission. I am a naturally shy person and approaching guests in our store is intimidating enough, it's even worse when some of my more socially savvy coworkers notice me trying to strike up a conversation with someone and they come in and literally steal my client from me.

Is it silly to want to feel valued by my Partner/Practice Leader?

He rewards me well rating/comp-wise, gives me a lot of latitude etc but OTOH I constantly get blown off for check-ins, multiple emails ignored, excluded from some conversations that might be relevant for me, etc.

Maybe it’s just normal Partner behavior and I should grow a thicker skin, but generally feel emotionally disconnected from him and that my portfolio of work is not integral, or is an afterthought, to the practice.

Is it a red flag for a firm to chase after you for months? Like are they desperate or do they actually want me? Big imposter syndrome over here.

I’m dealing with a difficult management situation and don’t know what to do, how would you report someone when nobody really cares what’s going on or is automatically going to side with the other person?

Is a cheetah headband appropriate for an interview? 😭

Hey all, what do you usually talk/share in your 1:1 meeting with your supervisor? I think I should take this opportunity to get feedback from him or share some goals and vision, other than that I feel nervous and don't know what to talk about. In addition, sometimes I'm afraid to be judged by him if I have nothing to say. Any advice? Thanks. :)

My boss and I were having a virtual lunch chat with another colleague of mine. The colleague congratulated him on his new relationship being official. I already knew about it so the chat headed towards the direction of their origin. A week goes by, project is going well, suddenly I get a meeting request from him to give me feedback with 20 minutes notice. He basically called me unprofessional for asking him about his personal life and that he should be able to keep private ... (1/2)

Is white the only acceptable shirt color for an interview? Do we always have to be so still and conservative?

One of my coworkers keeps coming to me with questions about the software we use as well as how to do things on our computers.

When I asked him why he didn't just ask his manager, he said that she's really busy and always has her head in something else besides being available for questions.

Remember your roots. You’re a minority, and are privileged to be in this field. You are not divine, or a genius, you got lucky. Civil rights giants paved the way for you to step foot in law school. Respect them by lifting your community, and improving our quality of life.

There is plenty of space for all of us, and we are stronger together. Have some empathy for your kin and leave your bigotry at the door.

I know as attorneys of color, we often find ourselves being in a room with dozens of attorneys and still were the only attorney of color (I’m a brown woman, very often the only brown person AND only woman in the room). I’m starting to attend more client meetings and depositions, trials, etc. and I’m noticing it more and it’s starting to distract me bc I start overthinking it in the moment. How do y’all deal with that?

I’m an aspiring court reporter. Kind of weird to ask here, I know, but is there any place I can go to link with other black reporters? I’ve tried looking on ig and fb but there’s nothing exclusive for people of color. I even created a bowl here and shnada so far. Also, is it common for you to use the same reporter for different jobs? I’m wondering if I could work freelance and maybe have contracts with a few solid attorneys. So many horror stories around Court Reporting firms. TIA for reading!
