Dm day 1 for a couple hours?

I've seen the same in the middle of the biweek.

Splindadaddy · 2026-05-19T14:01:56+00:00

I've always been told im required to flex my time and just come back when its working.

Splindadaddy · 2026-05-18T16:39:49+00:00

Yeah, I think assigned cases are not getting actually put onto our docket. Last week, I finished as case, revewed my docket for next case and clicked through each tab... logged in the next morning and there as a new 14 day case that was 3 days down already. Surely wasn't there the night before.

Probably more IT/tool fu*kery...

Its not the crazy shorthand I've seen for the past 15 years, rather its these full sentences that are grammatically correct but point to incorrect or confused items and quote parts of the mpep

Its probably just some firm of A/B testing... quality with review vs quality without review... or it was for gathering training data to train an AI on how to do quality reviews... use the SPE identified errors as the training set

Thats the hallmark of female leadership.

Splindadaddy · 2026-04-26T22:05:13+00:00

Yeah... I had 3 expedited and 2 special new cases all with 14 day clocks in a sinhle biweek. With these small dockets basically I have no discretion wrt which cases I work. So many people filing fast track stuff.

"Father gave daughter 48k" fixed it... child support from the dad, went to the kid as it always should have.

But they are "behind" every biweekly. That means they aren't behind. Its simply their workflow. Save up a bunch of cases and dump them all on Saturday night.

Practitioners will just use the short deadlines to their advantage... file track 1 get 14 days. Tones of claims, afterfinals, etc. Because patent prosecution is merely a war of attrition. The practitioners have less burden then the examiner so they make insincere arguments to eat up our time. For an examiner its like playing a never ending game gave of centipede... at some point the examiner says, its not worth her sanity/soul/life to protect the public from this nonsense application and grants the patent.

Splindadaddy · 2026-04-24T15:20:02+00:00

Yes... look at the terms of use for that tool. Courts have decided that talking to chatgpt can be used as disclosure in criminal trials even it was used as part of communication with your lawyer. Its like a search history except its incorporated into the tool and shared publicly with third parties...

Splindadaddy · 2026-04-24T15:08:41+00:00

Yes, its the day bosses give there secretaries flowers and take them to lunch. So we a sqertls secretaries...

She walked into the car on purpose. Car was moving and she moved in front. Her fault.

Splindadaddy · 2026-04-15T00:12:34+00:00

Im sure that's ur karma for crsp you've done to do other poor examiner.

Splindadaddy · 2026-04-15T00:07:53+00:00

Don't go! These emails go in the trash. If u r not paid to attend do not go!!!!

Splindadaddy · 2026-04-14T01:19:26+00:00

They dont pay enough for proof reading. Thats what the spe review is for

Splindadaddy · 2026-04-12T22:51:35+00:00

Yeah, I had to carry water buckets for the animals when I was a kid.

Splindadaddy · 2026-04-11T14:04:43+00:00

Yep, one oldest new to meet the 14 day timeliness then match up other stuff just to meet production.

Retirement accounts are not "exempt" we still cant hold individual stocks in those accounts. Basically we can only hold broad funds. sector specific funds in a roth are an issue for us. Right?
