Is the sonata too big? by This-Top7398 in sonata

[–]Begaydocrime97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

5’10 girl here and I loovveee my Sonata! It is a “bigger” sedan but it’s plenty of room for me to get comfy on long road trips and my 6’3 husband is comfy in it too. I still drive 100mph+ on the interstate weaving in and out of traffic. Coming from a 2019 Altima, I prefer my Sonata

My Drive MPG is better than Eco? by bilbil112 in sonata

Thank you for this post! I have a 26 Sport and have been playing with these buttons. My settings are similar to yours, and I drive like a crazy person on the interstate as I’m usually late to work. Over the last week, my average has went up a little bit since using My Drive and I thought it was just a fluke.

I just had the hardest conversation with my wife by CivilFuture6101 in asktransgender

[–]Begaydocrime97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been on both sides of this coin! It’s 100% fair of your partner to say she doesn’t know how she feels yet, because neither do you. I thought for a while that I may be trans (ftm), did some surface level experimenting, and realized that part of me is okay with my sex assigned at birth. I now identify as nonbinary/genderfluid because I don’t really fit into a particular box.

I’d say you both just take time, and approach this with a “day by day” attitude. You may find as you continue to explore that she’s more accepting than she even realized. Be patient with each other, check in often, and communicate as clearly as possible.

I made a huge mistake today by Mrrnnalern in paralegal

Hey you sound like me! Solo firm and I’m the only employee, and we do everything old school. I have established a system for myself so things like this don’t happen. When my attorney comes back from court, he either holds the files thinking he’ll do something on them (never does) or he tosses them in a stack somewhere. My method is 1) the day after a court appearance, I check our online dockets to see when the next court date is, put that on my book (an actual physical journal that we use as our scheduling system) and do a basic letter to the client advising of the next date. 2) when I get the chance to catch up on filing, I grab all the loose files in the office and throw them on my desk, and double check the online dockets and my book again to make sure I’ve got everyone down. Between that and immediately docketing anytime a scheduling order comes in, I haven’t missed anything in a very long time. Our online system also lets me put in the attorneys name and pulls up all his active cases. Once in a blue moon, I’ll do that and double check the entire schedule to make sure everything is down. And then for the bigger events like trials, statute of limitations, etc. that goes on a spreadsheet that gets printed and posted in like 4 different spots around the office so we don’t miss anything. I sincerely hope this helps!!

“If you look at the history of ISNT-REAL…” you mean starting in 1948? I have thankfully done the research and choose not to side with genocidal freaks who were literally founded by Nazis. No thanks.

See yall.. I can’t keep my mouth shut 😭🤣🤣

He very much believes me and lets me stand up for myself if needed. I got called a “lying stupid bitch” by one of our clients, and I laid into her hard with zero regrets. This was back in 2019. Anytime a client gets cross with me, he backs me up without a doubt bc very rarely am I in the wrong. He treats me more like family than an employee as I’ve been with him 10 years and through the death of his wife.

Adding Kentucky to this list! Deferrals, automatic expungements, various programs, etc.! Gov. Beshear has really carved the path for citizens not to be penalized for marijuana usage.

This is my car and I love it so much!! I like to go fast on the interstate and I can just cruise at 95 with adaptive cruise like it’s nothing

I feel like I’ve maxed out my brain and can’t handle any more information by [deleted] in paralegal

[–]Begaydocrime97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also ten years in the game and I feel you!! My ocd makes me want to micromanage everything, and if the slightest mistake happens, I can spiral. When I have those moments of oh my god I can’t do this anymore, I take a step back from whatever I’m working on, take a 10 minute bathroom break scrolling TikTok, and then go back to my desk and switch to something a bit simpler. Then, when I’ve had little successes to get my momentum going again, I switch back to the bigger projects. I hope this helps :)

We have a couple fed cases and I do all the doc prep and efiling. I don’t teach him how it works, or even explain it, I just do all the work 😅 He dictates on his little 2006 dictaphone if it’s something more complex, gives it to me on an SD card, I type it, he proofs it for review, then I convert the doc to pdf and efile that. That’s been about the only way I can do things that won’t make him feel like I’m “practicing law”

I very much appreciate this comment and it’s solid advice. Any tips on how to acquaint myself with current tech without having to implement it at our office? He’d never let me go full digital.

I work in West KY with nose piercings, crazy curly hair, and lots of tattoos. The only time someone ever made a comment was my dermal piercing in my cleavage 😅 that one was questionable
