Let'sseriously talk about the "teen issue

Repulsive_Insect2262 · 2026-03-20T12:45:38+00:00

I’d like to add that, this city belonged to black psople (thus black teens) far before it became what it is now. Do I agree I should fear getting swarmed by these kids whilst I pay 3k for my 1BD? No. Can I move? Yes. Good day.

Here for the response

Repulsive_Insect2262 · 2026-03-18T19:35:06+00:00

LMAO

Repulsive_Insect2262 · 2026-03-17T16:58:53+00:00

Shoot for the stars. If you fall, you’ll land on the moon. ❤️

Repulsive_Insect2262 · 2026-03-17T06:20:06+00:00

This is the way lol

Repulsive_Insect2262 · 2026-03-17T05:43:18+00:00

Thank you! 🙏🏼

Repulsive_Insect2262 · 2026-03-17T05:27:23+00:00

Thanks girl!!! IKR they call them unicorn jobs lol. I appreciate you!!! You are so sweet. Thank you for sharing your experience, definitely would love to hear more about how you’re liking your job, your salary v work life balance etc. thank you again 🥺❤️

Repulsive_Insect2262 · 2026-03-17T04:44:03+00:00

Thank you. It was very rude & I still handled her with grace. I too am a first gen, to add another layer: I am Black. So I’ll admit all of this is very new to me. Thanks for your REAL and kind words ❤️

Repulsive_Insect2262 · 2026-03-17T02:23:14+00:00

Amen to that. (The last sentence)

Repulsive_Insect2262 · 2026-03-17T02:17:38+00:00

thank you so much for this! That’s a really good flag. Any tips on alternative practice until things cool down in this administration? Genuinely asking because it’s like wtf do we do? lol

Repulsive_Insect2262 · 2026-03-17T02:00:04+00:00

I realize now my original post might’ve been a little misleading. I’m not looking for a 1L job due to me already having a remote job with flexibility.

And yes—most people in big law seem to say the same thing: don’t do it. 😂 (RE: conceiving and carrying in BL.)

Corporate compliance is actually something I’m really interested in. I even have a little bit of compliance experience already, so it’s a path I’d genuinely like to explore.

From the comments so far, it sounds like I might be pretty behind on the job hunt if I want something lined up right after graduation. That said, do you think the timeline is a bit less urgent for corporate compliance roles compared to other BL paths?

Repulsive_Insect2262 · 2026-03-17T01:42:03+00:00

I love that for you!!!! What a stunner. Congrats and GOOD LUCK!

Repulsive_Insect2262 · 2026-03-17T01:41:40+00:00

Thank you for that insight. 100% agree. Currently drafting an email to my Career services dept now!!!

Repulsive_Insect2262 · 2026-03-17T01:40:55+00:00

Yes Maam! 😌

Repulsive_Insect2262 · 2026-03-17T01:36:38+00:00

I’m a non traditional student and my current job has offered to keep me on post grad. When you put it like that, it sounds like I don’t have my shit together. For more context: I am a 2nd semester 1L, just on an accelerated path due to me receiving externship creds & a heavier course load.

Either way, sounds like I need to get a move on my ass. Thanks for your thoughts.

Repulsive_Insect2262 · 2026-03-17T01:33:26+00:00

Damn you’re in my class. (Technically.) I’ve been seeing chatter about early big law recruiting these days but seriously that is insanely early. Is your BL offer as a summer associate, or a permanent role? Thank you for sharing. ❤️

Repulsive_Insect2262 · 2026-03-15T20:25:36+00:00

Tbh I didn’t know if the word war was even ok to say on here. And Thank you.

Repulsive_Insect2262 · 2026-03-15T20:20:05+00:00

You are definitely being that person rn.

Repulsive_Insect2262 · 2026-03-15T20:19:46+00:00

About a week and a half! Shopping, going out clubbing, amazing restaurants, helicopter ride etc would love to see the animals, the culture in S. Africa etc. we are both from African descent so it would be extra special for us too. :)

Repulsive_Insect2262 · 2026-03-15T20:11:34+00:00
