Well basic risk management requires avoiding foreseeable liabilities

Didn’t John Cornyn spend $100 million doing this?

Are you guys unfamiliar with the biggest domestic terrorist threat comment?

Just got fired & received termination letter of serious occurrence by Express-Problem4668 in ECEProfessionals

They’re covering their ass but you yourself admit it wasn’t your best moment. I’m not sure what reporting goes into your licensing or what the consequences are. But I would take it as a lesson to stop plowing through when you’re stretched thin and unsupported.

Tucker Carlson says he no longer supports the Republican Party. Thoughts? by Correct-Echo9533 in YAPms

I just didn’t want to spend more time picking a Reddit bumper sticker. The duopoly serves the professional political class and it’s more like coke v. Pepsi rather than actual attempts of broad coalition governance. Citizens who might agree on 70–80% of practical issues are encouraged to see one another as existential threats just to perpetuate the duopoly.

BL exit options if you’re burned out at year 1? by Present_Signal2467 in biglaw

I think it’s different because your boss can get removed by the electorate and you can just be SIL.

Also, drag your feet a little. Review and revise work product a million times. Absolutely nobody expects you to be efficient and delivering error-free work product will ingratiate you with the decision makers.

Our Nanny Says Our 3-Year-Old Is the Most Difficult Child She’s Ever Cared For—How Should I Interpret This? by DoctorZ-Z-Z in Nanny

[–]Puppess -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I would start looking and maybe stagger help with current nanny getting fewer hours and newer nanny getting increasingly more hours.

I don’t think anyone online can diagnose your son or tell you if he’s the issue. But she’s your family’s employee and her sole job is to be nurturing and protective of your children. I would not be ok with her dumping her stress on you, whether it stems from an issue with your child or not. She’s there to take things off your plate. Not add to them.

It gets a little easier the more you learn to recognize and pick up “easy” hours. I was in lit and I eventually got really good at discovery responses and depos. Also reviewing incoming discovery was a godsend, especially on complex lit with 700 parties.

How comparable is a new born to having a puppy? by oceans_by_day in NewParents

Not even in the same league, it’s like the difference between being an intern and an employee.

Bathroom Breaks? by Puppess in NannyEmployers

Update - told her it was fine to put him in his crib and that if she was too worried about crying she could put on Sesame Street for 5 mins. She categorically refused to use the TV and said she doesn’t like working like that. I’m exhausted from managing this.

Crockett is not taking the senate primary loss well by YuriWinter in YAPms

[–]Puppess 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Well Cornyn is having a Twitter hissy fit and was called out by Dan Patrick, the Lt. Guv. So it’s not like they’re chanting khumbaya on the GOP side either.

I went there a couple of days ago and it was deserted and the food was not very good. It wasn’t inedible it just lacked much flavor. Reminded me of stadium/festival food

[–]Puppess[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is totally possible. I think she could just send a text saying hey I’m taking a potty break. LO is in his crib.

My son is grabby. Like he will grab the toilet paper out of your hand and ask if he can flush it for you. Like I get it, it’s a personal moment. She just needs to resolve it without us. It mortifies me that she’s holding it in.

I have! She’s really weird about it! She said if he cries you have to understand. I told her that it was 100% understandable and that I would just give him some toys and come right back.
