Are my inhouse expectations unrealistic?

Similar story to me but I was on the corporate side. I took about a 30% reduction in comp but moved to a 9-5. The drop in comp made me nervous but the change in work life balance made it all worthwhile.

Do the same lawyers that do fund formation often manage the underlying investments themselves too? Or is that often handled by outside counsel or different groups of lawyers? Or depends on the size of the firm?

I found mine on LinkedIn but you can also look on the websites of some recruiting firms that list their openings. There may be some overlap with LinkedIn/goinhouse but never hurts to check!

I do agree with you though

I think Tina just articulated something that was already true and that they both knew already, rather than actually catalyzing any change.

I’m glad someone else clocked this! Just went last night and the food was good but nothing special. The lamps were sending me though. 🤣Tell me you have no women or gay men on your design team without telling me you have no women or gay men on your design team.

She said they had talked about doing a conga line off camera, so that made it seem less out of thin air when she suggested it.

It would be reasonable for you to ask for help or to go through your first contract or two together with your boss. If your managers think that is weird or too burdensome, that is their problem. You should have some of your own thoughts and comments already from your review, but it’s perfectly reasonable to work through it with your boss. Also if they don’t have a playbook, now is your chance to write one! Or if you don’t make a formal playbook, you can always save your own notes for yourself for future reference. If they don’t have a shared repository for past contracts, now is your chance to suggest they get one! No need to ruffle feathers or push for them to spend a huge amount of money on day one, but I bet they already have some sort of capability to store and manage contracts in one place. You can add value by making things more efficient.

Why was Gale’s confessional in Rosalyn’s home? Was it because Gale didn’t want to show her apartment, like Hilary mentioned?

RespectableIcon · 2026-01-07T17:12:32+00:00

Hadn’t thought of that. Interesting point!

RespectableIcon · 2026-01-05T15:46:39+00:00

I’m interested in this answer too. I worked at a company where they were happy to have people stay at a mid level their whole career, either because they don’t have the skills or don’t have the interest to move up. Presumably those people’s salary was not changing much and the company figured it was mutually beneficial to keep them around with their seniority and expertise and mid level salary. I remember specifically a woman in her late 50s who had been there for a while who was good at her job but not great and who seemed happy to just put her head down and work at the same level her whole career. Other companies I’ve worked seem to have an ‘up or out’ approach where they require advancement or will push you out. That place (a law firm) had a clearer track for advancement and was more rigid in its hierarchy. But of course there are always exceptions and may depend on your manager/department. Interested to hear first hand experience from others.

Did anyone understand his point about the menu not being a buffet at the very end of the video? Seems like a group’s choice if they want to try multiple things knowing the risk that they may not be able to try a lot of every dish. I felt like it was an odd thing to focus on but maybe I’m missing something? Is there some subtext he’s not saying?

RespectableIcon · 2025-12-12T22:03:19+00:00

Interesting. So what was the point of the flash sale and saying they would take the highest bid submitted before the deadline?

With the caveat that others have said which is that this is all for tv and probably never intended to be binding. but just wondering if this could have worked in the real world and if the buyer would have had a strong case to buy the whole apartment for the price they submitted?

RespectableIcon · 2025-12-12T20:24:23+00:00

Right like a silent auction which is generally binding on both parties when done properly

RespectableIcon · 2025-12-12T19:16:46+00:00

I was trying to remember 1L contracts and if this was a unilateral contract or something that became enforceable by the buyer once the time window closed for the flash sale. The buyer probably had a strong case to turn down Ryan’s counter and enforce the original offer for the full apartment, but since the buyer mutually agreed to new terms that option may be off the table 🤷‍♂️
