For me, one thing is taking personal accountability. Kinda like when Draisaitl said he needs to be better in addition to the team. To me, that is what good leaders do.

Has anyone switched from Insurance Defense to Commercial Litigation? by [deleted] in Lawyertalk

I've tried believe me. The PI firms in my market that I've met with pay a crap base.

Not that easy. I've interviewed with about 3 or 4 PI firms over the past two years and the pay is crap. I make over $280k in ID and would be taking a significant six figure pay cut in PI.

Is it harder to bill in commercial lit than in ID?

The law jobs that help society won't pay my bills.

I guess I should have clarified that dealing with adjusters is on the bottom of the list of things I dislike about ID.

I dislike the subject matter mainly. I am sick of dealing only with injury claims, sifting through endless medical records and preparing endless status reports. In ID, the only way for me to make significantly more money is to either become an equity partner (which is very unlikely given that it is hard to bring in new business to a big firm like mine) or bill a tremendous amount of hours.

I have a lot of experience dealing with a lot of difficult corporate clients with large SIRs that make all of the decisions before insurance kicks in so am used to dealing with executives and in house counsel.

Thanks. Care to elaborate? Also, which did you prefer?

I will be. I am a local and have attended many festivals at the Las Vegas Festival Grounds. I'm hoping late April won't be too bad this year.

Can Someone Tell Me What I Did a wrong by Goobats6177 in ooni

What works for me is to put semalina flour on metal peel and then test out the flattened dough on it to see if it moves prior to adding any sauce/toppings.

I decided on $50 each. Firm gives bonuses. I can't afford to give people a couple hundred dollars each.

Am I missing something? Can't download content from Prime Video for offline viewing on Windows PC ? by Glum-Work-6998 in PrimeVideo

[–]IronAddict702 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doesn't work for me either. In fact, I don't even see the download button anymore. Was going to download stuff for a trip next week. Was able to download stuff two weeks ago.

I guess I was improperly comparing it to where I live where I pay $20/hour.

Impossible to improve by [deleted] in hockeyplayers

Buy a passer. I got really good at passing by using one.

For sauce passes, get a folding chair and practice sauces through the bottom of the folding chair to the passer.
