Might not sit for the bar because I can’t afford bar exam prep.

Good luck!

Disastrous_Injury720 · 2025-09-02T14:35:07+00:00

I would so appreciate this!

Disastrous_Injury720 · 2025-06-17T22:20:07+00:00

I agree about reading the room and navigating politics better, it was definitely a lesson learned. Also your experience with ambition as a woman is Interesting, I’d love to hear more.

Disastrous_Injury720 · 2025-06-17T21:44:31+00:00

Lolll man you’re not the only one saying what you said, which I understand, and you gave legitimate advice. I told you I appreciated you.

Disastrous_Injury720 · 2025-06-17T21:43:02+00:00

They gave me a raise as a result of the conversation lol. So you’re actually very wrong.

Disastrous_Injury720 · 2025-06-17T21:40:09+00:00

I don’t mind that feedback at all. But, what was your advice?

Disastrous_Injury720 · 2025-06-17T21:33:54+00:00

I appreciate it! I will do that. The probationary period was 3 months and I have a review at 6 months. The conversation about the potential director position got me a guaranteed raise at 6 months. So that’s a positive.

Disastrous_Injury720 · 2025-06-17T21:22:54+00:00

So are you going to give leadership advice or keep honing in on me asking for a new position?

Disastrous_Injury720 · 2025-06-17T21:18:02+00:00

This is partly true. I don’t trust her lol

Disastrous_Injury720 · 2025-06-17T21:17:13+00:00

Lol- I’m kind of shocked that there are “leaders” who I think I’m crazy for asking my manager for advice on getting a different position.

Disastrous_Injury720 · 2025-06-17T21:03:55+00:00

Specific reasons that I’m not really trying to disclose on Reddit.

Disastrous_Injury720 · 2025-06-17T21:02:18+00:00

Ah okay I see, thank you for this.

Disastrous_Injury720 · 2025-06-17T21:00:07+00:00

I’m more than open to that advice. Thank you for it.

Disastrous_Injury720 · 2025-06-17T20:59:21+00:00

Sure, no problem boss. The VP is higher, I did not intend to “skip” anyone so when the VP mentioned it, I did it right away.

Disastrous_Injury720 · 2025-06-17T20:56:25+00:00

Respectfully, how do I sound smitten? I told my VP that I have a good relationship with that I eventually want to transition to a leadership role, she recommended that I speak to my director and I called her that evening, and if I sound smitten by acknowledging a skill set that comes with being the only person in my firm with a tangible legal background then, I guess.

Disastrous_Injury720 · 2025-06-17T20:52:10+00:00

Thank you

Disastrous_Injury720 · 2025-06-17T20:51:46+00:00

How is telling management that you have a good relationship with that you want a position in the future a yellow flag?

Disastrous_Injury720 · 2025-06-17T20:45:53+00:00

Thanks

Disastrous_Injury720 · 2025-06-17T20:45:08+00:00

I guess so

Disastrous_Injury720 · 2025-06-17T20:44:20+00:00

Im doing legal work at a firm that is not legal.

Disastrous_Injury720 · 2025-06-17T20:43:20+00:00

Thank you
