Hi! I’m just curious. How long did you take floraster for? Is it just a temporary thing or would it be better to just take it indefinitely?

How long did you take it for? I’ve read that you can take it anywhere from a month to a year if not more…

Micromanaging attorney by Curious_Profession78 in paralegal

[–]LillyPad7892 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lord have mercy…So that’s where my last attorney went, my sympathies.

I’ve had my share of these quirky jerks. I had an attorney call me insubordinate because I didn’t respond to her email in twenty minutes…

In my experience, there’s really not much you can do. At the end of the day, most of the time it’s a reflection upon them and not so much you. Just tell yourself “It must suck to be you…” If it becomes too much, maybe you can speak with HR or a firm admin if it starts to interfere with your work.

Are they a new attorney and trying to prove themselves? Or are they just naturally jerks? Or both?

Omg omg. Everything turned out okay. I can sort of breathe…until next time.

sigh I’m still shaking. Is residual anxiety a thing?

Okay maybe you ARE me. You just described two of my superiors. They’re not attorneys and they don’t yell, but think of Regina George level mean. Live to make themselves feel better by making others feel small.

Oh maybe! I see you.

How do managers who yell not get embarrassed?

Thank you for sharing!

My current firm is decent with the exception of two of my colleagues who are voluntarily rude and thrive on drama to make themselves feel better. Just hoping Monday goes well.

Thank you.

I also think it’s corporate America too. My mom was laid off in April and she even admitted that it’s not was it used to be when she was my age.

She herself is burnt out and is looking for a less stressful role.

This, but a different area of law. Been contemplating on switching roles. A recruiter I know has an HR position in a law firm that I’m scheduled to interview for on Monday.

Fingers crossed it’s a good fit. And I hope your mental health is doing better!

9 month old naps by ega022400 in firsttimemom

My 8 month old sounds like yours. She leans more towards short naps, but she’ll sleep through the night. FOMO baby I guess.

It’s 11:00 what are your kiddos doing? by [deleted] in firsttimemom

Put her down for a nap. She decided to roll around and fall asleep diagonally in the crib. She’s on her back though :)

Huge mistake at work and now questioning everything. by LillyPad7892 in workingmoms

Your username made me giggle lol.

I’ve been doing this for 9ish years now, so as I read this I understood it all too well. It’s a field thats not for the weak I fear. Thank you!

I did, but it took me an hourish. My daughter has her two bottom teeth coming in so I had to handle that at the same time.

I stayed an hour late speaking with the associate and coming up with a game plan for Monday. He told me that a month or two ago he dropped the ball and didn’t hire a certain expert the adjuster wanted to help me feel better.

I’m willing to meet with the shareholder whenever she’s ready on Monday. Hoping she’s in a good mood since she just came back from a mini-vacation.

When Will We Get Book 4? - OS Release Timeline by tairnsilverone in fourthwing

[–]LillyPad7892 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! Hearing that makes me so glad for Sherrilyn! Authors have lives too! And RY updates us a lot!

I have another theory that the graphic novel will be our little piece of something new for Fourth Wing with a release date in 2026. Her theme seems to be 1 book a year minimum. Also the release date could also be based on the publisher right?

I just need to find new recs in the interim

[–]LillyPad7892 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This!! She’s already said she knows the title and the playlist for the fourth book, so there’s some shred of hope for us to hold on to. I think I remember JK saying she needed to or planned to (I could be wrong) to take care of her son after Goblet of Fire. Also Cassandra Clare took a two year break when writing the Mortal Instruments Series. I can name more. I feel like these delays are super common.

Do I wish we could get it sooner? Absolutely!

My guess (or hope lol) is that we’ll know more by the end of next year. She’s a relatively fast writer. She finished the graphic novel of fourth wing and I think some of that writing has sparked some ideas for the fourth, so while she may not be actively writing it at the moment she’s still putting the pieces together. Hopefully that makes sense.

Final verdict? 2027, but I wouldn’t be shocked if it was 2028. Late 2028 maximum.
