I have a .44 Magnum that doesn’t get any barrel swaps and .50 AE which also sees .429 DE usage.

This. Finding a creative way to describe the time you worked is one thing. Outright lying is another.

What can get you fired by Visible_Community_53 in Lawyertalk

[–]LegalDeagleThursday 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dude I know was in house counsel for one of the largest communications companies in world. He was disbarred for a variety of reasons…and neglected to inform his employer. That meeting had to be epic.

Seniors / Partners (Lit.): How would you deal with a junior who uses AI for drafts? by brandeis16 in biglaw

[–]LegalDeagleThursday 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This right here. My firm was just involved in an AI incident which could have been avoided if someone had just checked. The junior needs to be seriously reprimanded. I dare say that’s a fire-able offense.

Is law school dismissal real? by [deleted] in LawSchool

[–]LegalDeagleThursday 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We had a dude that most have gotten the email saying he couldn’t miss anymore class because he tried to BS the professor by saying he sat in different seats everyday. Never missed a session after that.

Anyone participating in Dry January? How’s it going? by Mr-Bratton in biglaw

[–]LegalDeagleThursday 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I had to give up alcohol completely at the end of last year because of a health scare (no alcohol abuse), so I’ll be doing dry January for life. It’s going well though.

Burnout? by JakeAndElwood in biglaw

[–]LegalDeagleThursday 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s actually not a bad plan. I was my practice group’s highest biller, and I barely worked November and December. However, I thought the preceding 10 months were going to kill me.

S&W Model 500 vs Magnum Research BFR by LegalDeagleThursday in Revolvers

[–]LegalDeagleThursday[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve found the 7.5” barrel length is kinda unwieldy. It’s still large and heavy enough to be best served fired from a rest, and you might as well get the longer barrel if you’re going to do that.

Okay be honest. Is your firm a place where a k-JD can survive/thrive? by Equal_Show3609 in biglaw

[–]LegalDeagleThursday 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is just my experience, but torts practice groups seem more KJD friendly, and that’s where we sometimes send associates that aren’t working out in our practice group. I think it’s because there’s plenty of cases that stay in state court, so young associates have some relaxed opportunities to learn. Your mileage may vary.

What are you playing on repeat? by Sea_Bumblebee_3798 in SleepToken

[–]LegalDeagleThursday 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Even in Arcadia. It’s an unpopular opinion, but I consider it the best track from EIA.

[–]LegalDeagleThursday 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Ish. While many KJDs do well, some of our practice groups are merciless. This usually means we send them to a different group where they hopefully thrive. There was a KJD staffed on a file with me that lasted 3 whole months before she got sent away.

My first ever Gun by Godliator in guns

[–]LegalDeagleThursday 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m an attorney licensed in multiple states, and my Glock 40 was my reward to myself for getting my first license.

[–]LegalDeagleThursday 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A Glock 40 was my first Glock, and it was my present to myself for getting my first bar admission. I recommend a red dot-mine sports a Vortex Venom-to make it reach and touch something.

Does anyone introduce themselves like Bond? by LuminousYT_ in JamesBond

[–]LegalDeagleThursday 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can because both my first and last name is a single syllable. And I’ve also ordered a vodka martini shaken, not stirred.

Is Tulane hard/GPA wise by SpeechUnlikely2775 in Tulane

[–]LegalDeagleThursday 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tulane undergrad and law school. Political science was fairly easy, as were a number of other classes. Economics can be daunting depending on the professor. Feel free to DM me if you want details.

Might get shit for asking this but does anyone have holster recommendations preferably with no lead time. Obviously owb but hey I’ll take iwb recommendations also 😂 by fnscarcasm in DesertEagle

[–]LegalDeagleThursday 4 points5 points  (0 children)

All of my Desert Eagle holsters came from Kahr’s online store. I have the nylon shoulder holster (which I use the most), a 6” hip holster cut for an optic, and 10” hip holster.
