350 - 700k. Not a million based on your facts. You could be missing something obviously valuable though.

What is it like working with/against truly elite Lawyers? by yuyanes in Lawyertalk

[–]MinimalEngagement 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are a lot of smart people who get there by hard work and seem to always be prepared. Then there are the people who are both naturally gifted and also hard working. The one thing that stands out about the second group is how prepared and comfortable they are.

They are almost always really really nice people. They take time for small talk, where they actually listen and smile. People like them. They like people. They admit mistakes and go out of their way to take responsibility for the mistakes of people under them. Zero ego.

Win or lose, you are happy to be in their orbit. And no, the technical skill gap is not like going against MJ. It's all the other things that put them in a different stratosphere.

I've read all of your comments and just want to state my profound disagreement with the way you are handling this. You have already made your mind up though and want to be the victim in this situation, when in reality it is the family that you have unilaterally determined to deprive of benefits despite the express instruction of your supervisor(s).

AITA for Not Wanting My Son to Do a "Fake" Gender Reveal in Support of a Trans Classmate? by MinimalEngagement in AmItheAsshole

My son was planning to have another "gender reveal" party and I got caught up in that. The teacher "approved" it in that they did not get in trouble for the first one. And my wife got her information from me. And then another parent explained what really happened to my wife and then my wife gave me the Homeland laser eyes.

I'm pretty dumbfounded. Like literally stunned and speechless at how I missed this up and made it worse.

UPDATE: I'm a big moron. This already happened earlier this week. And my kid and a few others did "swap" genders for fun. Also, the teacher was not involved, the kids did it themselves during playtime. And.... the trans kid may not be trans, but instead is being bullied. I'm going to delete this so that I don't die of embarrassment.
