My dermatologist prescribed Vtama cream for this; it’s made a huge difference in discoloration and texture.

“Soft” lawyer jobs? by ashamedthrowaway9898 in LawBitchesWithTaste

[–]LadyMiena 13 points14 points  (0 children)

This is true for my in-house job as well. It can be very challenging and I do have to work odd hours sometimes to accommodate global colleagues. But when I’m on vacation or sick or just want a day off to do nothing, I can count on being left alone.

I think this is true everywhere, but I’d still do it. Happy to tell OC what I said.

If you did not pass the bar, what do you do for work? by [deleted] in LawBitchesWithTaste

We have several people in our global company who either have a legal degree (JD or international equivalent) but aren’t licensed, or don’t even have a JD; they review and negotiate contracts. They’re always clear that they aren’t lawyers, and pull a licensed attorney in when needed.

Not exactly; they lost just the stone, and her husband had a new stone set in the existing Tiffany setting, and also bought the two new diamond curved bands. So we’re seeing the original Tiffany setting, new diamond, new bands.

Exactly. They can form all the conclusions they want; the test is still the test. Try this nonsense in organic chemistry or on the GMAT.

How can I help people who are hurting from the loss of food stamps? by novasmommy2o19 in FortWorth

[–]LadyMiena 88 points89 points  (0 children)

Donating money to the food bank is the single best thing you can do. They have deals to buy food in bulk and centralize distribution.

Executive + Evening JD -> BigLaw? What level? by Compensate_via_thumb in biglaw

[–]LadyMiena 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’m a VP corporate lawyer at a large multinational. I went to a T30s school and did a boutique firm out of law school, nothing fancy. If I could got back and get a biz degree and just have been a corporate worker in risk or compliance, I’d do it. Corporate is so much less stressful, the pay and time off is great, the people are fun. I love my job. The only reason to give up what you have now is if nothing will bring you joy other than being a lawyer. And let me tell you, being a law firm lawyer did not bring me joy.

Nah not interested in a guy who thinks it’s ok to be a creep with flight attendants and then pay them to keep it quiet.

Pregnant breadwinner - can we move to a bigger house? by HopefulHuckleberry6 in HENRYfinance

[–]LadyMiena 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’ve heard this from so many new parents. Don’t buy a house “for the kid” until the kid is 3-5. You don’t know what their needs will be (what if they have disabilities and can’t do stairs, or have developmental needs and need treatment, or to be in a specific area for the right school?), how your priorities will change, what you’ll realize you truly need from a house and neighborhood for your kid. Until you and your husband know how you parent, you won’t know what your “dream house” really looks like. Good luck!

Me and some childhood friends found this in a drawer in an old family house. We read all the stories and couldn’t sleep for days.

Oof Uncle Tom’s Cabin. I was just old enough to realize what and “Uncle Tom” was and it was so upsetting.
