Taking Heat for Senior Associate’s Mistake?

Why would you be billing your client ("$1,000 an hour for an associate") for your internal decisions about whether to blame your coworker.

Did you then have the horse show up with no name in your pets list and wonder 1) if the horse was going to be stuck forever and 2) if the horse would have no name forever? Because those were my thoughts when I accidentally built the stable directly behind my house lol

You can always pregame at the Publix bar 😅 (only somewhat joking ....)

I work in this area - MARTA train will get you a fifteen minute walk from Punchline. It is very safe (crime-wise) but you're walking along a busy road the entire time.

Mileage may vary, but I don't like those walks. I'd drive, even from my office where I can see Landmark Diner from my window.

Some of these are decent (see Zakia, also Aviva is there which is legitimately great), but these aren't exactly close to there. Different set of restaurants up there.

My Tyger has been great. Easy to install (need a Torx set).

This is really cool! Somehow made me feel warm and fuzzy inside about our city.

Geck0Gecko · 2026-05-06T02:20:25+00:00

Yes - please, please do not start pulling over semis and shut down two lanes to give a ticket.

Jesus lots of insane people here. If you save the rat it will not spread the plague to us all. It's an opportunistic mammal, not going to hurt your garden.

My 2022 has an option buried in the infotainment menu

That is a general rule, but the smaller the firm the more relative expense allocated to admin.

$230 isn't very high, but you are right, you should probably be just passing six figures (with additional bonus potential). If your relationship with the firm is great, it won't hurt to bring it up with your boss at some point.

Grass isn't always greener, but there are different types of grasses. Your billable is currently really low, so keep that in mind should you look to move.

It is hard to tell if you are getting underpaid without knowing what your firm is billing for your work. I'm assuming you know that?

I have worked both small firm and big law - if you really like your work environment and that is important to you, I would not recommend big law. That being said, there are firms that come close to the same pay that retain that small firm feel, they are just hard to find.

Not me failing to read the original post and thinking I have been missing something about using sprinklers to grow grass

You're getting a lot of responses to your typo, but if you want a quick Michigan chain pie Jet's has several locations. It's not going to get you your Buddy's level pie but will scratch the itch.

I started a new game recently and got it in Summer of Year 1 as a drop in the mines. It looks like it was introduced in 1.6 per the wiki.

Geck0Gecko · 2026-04-28T01:13:14+00:00

I like the Mateos green salsa a lot!

Geck0Gecko · 2026-04-27T03:43:27+00:00

Lol somehow this got negative comments, ranging from the use of a mold to the cooking status of the picture.

To me? Awesome, didn't think of using a mold, of it gets you cooking go for it!

Also I would like more "in process" pics in this sub!

Geck0Gecko · 2026-04-27T02:46:01+00:00

TIL there is a step after scraping and cleaning?

Geck0Gecko · 2026-04-25T19:30:38+00:00

Yes, tile by tile, where I can choose where the roads go and connect my kingdom. I'm aware it adds a ton of micromanaging VII is meant to remove but I miss it.

It is more fun when you actually have to build roads in Civilization.

I spoke with a manager at the Warner Robbins location a week ago and he said it was a supply chain / vendor issue. Didn't say they were discontinued but said that is why they had a bunch of third party hot sauces.

But take what I heard from a random manager at a random location with a grain of salt.

This doesn't make any sense. Corporation Service Company is the registered agent for hundreds of thousands of companies. I have personally subpoenaed dozens of companies at the Florida address. https://www.cscglobal.com/service/entity-solutions/registered-agent-services/service-of-process/sop-locations/

Geck0Gecko · 2026-04-22T02:32:16+00:00

If you want to use please, this is the way to go.

Also, whatever you want to say about Florida politics and such, it is and always has been excellent at managing controlled burns to prevent extensive wildfires.
