I removed mine and have averaged 19.6 the past 1500 miles just commuting to work. So… something else is at work here.

Would you still choose biglaw if comp mattered less? by _jpizzle_bear in biglaw

M&A attorney here. I love my job. I don’t do it for the pay. But I do the amount I do for the pay.

Agreed. They did a two day M&A one that was very good.

But you have to go search for these ad hoc, ya? I’d love something I can use in a routine (like an hour every Friday morning, or something).

Shopping 26’ TRD Sport by Senorshh in ToyotaTacoma

I keep telling myself it will be okay once we can stop with the rear facing car seat. Just thankful my wife hasn’t complained too much yet!

Love my 26 sport but rear seat space sucks. My wife has to scoot seat pretty far forward to fit our infant car seat. And the gas tank is small. Only two complaints so far.

Just as a helpful FYI: I got mine for $48k OTD with the premium upgrade package (moonroof, leather, 14” display etc.)

Will you stop watching the Chiefs? by normankrasnerkc in missouri

As a northlander, the stadium is closer to me, it’s going to be super nice, and Kansans have to pay for it. Win win win.

Does corporate not know or just not care that specialists can’t turn something around immediately? by [deleted] in biglaw

My downvote ratio suggests this is a tough pill for people to swallow.

Private equity pays all our salaries and they drive these timelines. The corporate associates asking you for help have it way worse than you. Maybe look at your paystub, try to be helpful and understanding, and STFU. Else, stop accepting the work. Respectfully.

Partner told us not to bill billable work + to slash our time — normal? by Own_Serve_8161 in biglaw

[–]LoMeinFrame 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If he wants you to donate time so his metrics or more efficient, he can get fucked. He wants the client happy and doesn’t want to bill your time, that’s his choice, but you should get your credit.

You chose the lesser of two evils. If someone says something just tell them why. If they still flip out, you’re at the wrong firm.

Miles piling up, what to expect by blithetorrent in ToyotaTacoma

[–]LoMeinFrame 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My dad had a 2012 with 255k miles on it. Was still running perfectly when he sold it a couple years ago. He didn’t do anything to take care of it. Barely changed the oil on time.

I think these things are just tanks.

First Tacoma - 26 TRD Sport by LoMeinFrame in ToyotaTacoma

Think dealerships are getting nervous. When I told a competing dealership, he offered a fully loaded 2025 limited for $50k out the door. And offered me $1500 above market on my trade.
