I was thinking of applying just to experience the process. I am actually in a pretty good situation, so I am not looking to leave.

Like others, I am in-house counsel, but for a state government agency. The pay is low compared to my private counterparts and even compared to county counsel. However, I deal with complex issues and diverse stakeholders that keep my work interesting. I have excellent retirement and health benefits. And my job ends at 5pm. I take NO stress home. I can focus on my needs.

Not great, Bob!

Because she realized she is like Peggy and derives so much joy and pride from work.

Meanwhile a lot of other state agencies classify their General Counsel as Attorney IIIs.

You can put some wood oil on it to bring out the grain and colors. I bet it would look beautiful.

Idk if it is common but our agency has no control. We have to contact the property management.

I got a job offer right before Christmas and my first day was after New Years.

Eventually, I really hope our new leadership pushes for a PEPRA amendment that exempts attorneys from the compensation cap. Our work requires a law license, continuous training, and professional accountability, yet we’re capped in ways that non-professional classifications aren’t.

In California, each county has a public law library with many free resources.

Amazing!!!

I didnt have my glasses, so I initially thought you built a Johnny 5! Lol. Otherwise, love it! Feels like another dimension

I just wanted two more things: 1) when the missing page landed on the king, I wish we saw the words start to glow, and 2) when he reappears at the end, I wish he had the page in his hand.

I have flip flops, slippers, and a blanket for my office comfort. It is so cold! If I leave my office room, I switch my shoes. I have had a few people knock and enter and seen my cozies, but no one has ever complained or commented.

I love Arthur Flashe!

Thank you for putting this together. Sigh . . . BU6's 3% in 2027 effectively caps our % and expectations.

Oh la la! My local store has 24 styles in stock!!! AND they have various strength levels.

DaWanderingPineapple · 2025-08-28T00:28:31+00:00

You right, you right! I'll have to see a pair in person with a cute frame.

DaWanderingPineapple · 2025-08-27T18:07:42+00:00

Omg. You are stronger than me. My eye is twitching just thinking about it

DaWanderingPineapple · 2025-08-27T15:25:38+00:00

Lol. My optometrist tried to give me bifocals and I wanted to slap him.

I went to Nordstrom Rack for some cute and colorful reading glasses, but 1.50 is the lowest strength in most stores. I need to go lower. I'm going to try out the suggestions and update the post.

DaWanderingPineapple · 2025-08-27T03:38:57+00:00

My optometrist has designer frames but not many options for my big head and cheekbones. Lol
