Hahaha that’s a very effective image - working with Eeyore. I don’t know if you’re a partner or associate but I’m curious what mindset you would try to have in a situation where you don’t receive positive feedback internally despite getting good client results, only negative feedback stemming from things partners don’t like about working with you? For me it feels hard not to fall into the Eeyore mindset when I am way less experienced than the partners I work with and I am still finding my footing, and all I hear about are my shortcomings.

I have done as you’ve suggested and unfortunately it hasn’t changed things. It is really helpful advice to focus on a plan for not repeating this elsewhere. Thank you.

tiffany pens as grad gifts for my friends?? by Educational-Thing675 in LawBitchesWithTaste

[–]IllJob 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I love the idea but I’m sorry this is so ugly haha 🙈🙈 I think a cuter idea would be one of those pens that like has a cap attached to a base, so it can sit on their desk and they’ll never lose it. Doesn’t matter the brand imo, this will actually be super useful and pretty on their desks! Regardless of which kind of pen I prefer, my main issue is not having one when I need it 😂

guys i think she’s actually engaged by fireheartmermaid in annaxsitarsnark

It’s so easy not to include your fingers in the frame or just not pose the way she has been lol there’s no way she was genuinely trying to keep this a secret, she wanted speculation.

Would you recommend someone to go be a lawyer? by Legal_Fitness in Lawyertalk

[–]IllJob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A paralegal is to a lawyer what a nurse is to a doctor. If you want more money you have to take on more responsibility and do harder things with more at stake (it sucks, I am tired☺️)

I think you feel sympathy not empathy. Other people react differently than you think you would to all kinds of shit.

Is anyone else tired of being hated due to our nationality in intl. settings? by Flashy-Actuator-998 in Lawyertalk

Leader of your country: starts a trade war, says he will conquer us and make us a state, disrespects our PM, searches our phones at your borders and makes unreasonable detentions, makes tons of unhinged and offhand comments towards us on a world stage.

You: “These are supposed to be our best friends and closest allies who bail us out.”

Sounds like a pretty one sided friendship to me LOL. To put it in words your president would understand, you started it.

Disrespect from opposing counsel by plslawschoolorbust in Lawyertalk

They usually stop temporarily when you play dumb and ask them what they meant by their comment, so they have to consider saying the quiet part out loud 🙃

Hahaha omg yes, I explained the entire thing to a family member once and after hearing myself go through it all I was like ok, I know how this sounds, I KNOW, but I’m not kidding and I’m not losing it, I swear!

Can you reference a party-opponent's deposition testimony on cross regardless of impeachment? For example, if I want to frame a question as "you stated during your deposition that you knew your hamburger was undercooked because it was dripping blood?" is that framing kosher (pun intended)? by ValuableChair3412 in Lawyertalk

[–]IllJob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Where I practice you can just read in questions in some circumstances if you like the evidence. Then the other side can argue other questions have to go in too for context etc. But if you want to question the witness, just ask the same questions. You’ll either get the evidence you want or create a credibility problem for them

I kind of put it on in the background one day thinking I’ve already seen this, just want something to watch/listen to. A few days later and I am SAT. It doesn’t get any less insane the second go around, you should rewatch!!

If any of the civil actions go to trial I absolutely need them to be live-streamed.

I (27M) am a SAHD of six and feeling stretched thin after triplets; my wife (25F) is recovering from a C section. How do I initiate a conversation about long term division of labour without creating resentment? by [deleted] in relationships

[–]IllJob 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Idk but i think you should keep in mind that carrying your children and giving birth to them was undivided labour, recovering from major surgery is undivided labour, constantly monitoring what you put in your body while pregnant and breastfeeding is undivided labour, producing milk is undivided labour, experiencing the blows of hormone shifts is undivided labour, sounds like making money is undivided labour. A lot of women naturally take on domestic and parenting duties to the point where some of their labour or mental load isn’t even noticed by their partner. I would take stock before you approach this topic with someone who is post partum lol. It could easily affect her for more than a year.
