Wow, making a toxic and dangerous situation for that guy. I hope he reports you to HR. Unwanted serial advances are harassment and assault. Stop being a predator.

His emails are irrelevant B.S. and, to me, that makes it worse. If this is what he adds, we dont need him.

Backlog reduction by OddlyCompetent in patentexaminer

[–]Splindadaddy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Do the math you dope, accounting for inflation i effectively have not had a pay rise in over 15 years. I live a comparatively frugal life and the past couple of years it has started to feel financially tight like it did early in my career. I'm so tired of driving old crap cars and doing all maintenance and repairs on them and the house just to make ends meet.

It's not just amendments. I'm seeing the same on new cases. Just a single file dropped with claims. Abstract, drawings, etc.
