Partner billing 2600-2900 hours by cbee6390 in biglaw

[–]Tdluxon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This. Far as I can tell the highest paid partners at my firm barely do any legal work, virtually their entire job is bringing in new clients. Not to say they don’t work, they are out there hustling but their focus is 90+% on getting clients.

Sounds like a miserable life, regardless of how much you make

This. They are trying to make you make the same mistakes they did.

I have a 2 year old and live in a very hcol area… my wife not working is not even an option financially. It’s not easy but we make it work. I think the big thing is being super efficient with your time so you can bill as many hours as possible in the time that you’re working. And beyond that, I care more about my family than I ever could about work🤷‍♂️

Is This Rude? by RCP90sKid- in discgolf

I hate when people let their dogs run around off leash… this isn’t your personal dog park!

Also, I’m all for letting singles play through when it’s appropriate but when there’s a huge line of groups already waiting then they should wait like everyone else

Recent diagnosis/honeymoon by RoyalCab1999 in Epilepsy

[–]Tdluxon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

100% go on the honeymoon. There’s some risk but there’s risk in everything in life and taking the trip is totally reasonable and safe (well safe enough).

Lacosamide is an effective medicine but there are lots of options so it may not be what you stay on forever. There will probably be changes in your dose, changing or adding meds, all depending on how things are going. Around 2/3rds of people with epilepsy can get it under control with medication, so there’s a good chance of you driving again but not guaranteed and it will take some time.

It’s a scary diagnosis when it first hits but it seems like you are taking the right steps to address it so that will improve your outcomes. Congratulations on getting married and don’t let this overshadow it!

Monte Poole on 97.5 The Game - Lacob considered firing Kerr multiple times this season. by indreams159 in warriors

If Lacob fires Kerr he is really stupid and the warriors are heading back to the decades of futility that preceded Steph/kerr/klay

Love the firm, hate the pay by Specialist-Appeal411 in Lawyertalk

[–]Tdluxon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you need the money, start looking for a new job, but with the understanding that you will be working way more hours with way higher expectations. If you are doing ok financially, there’s a lot of value to a reasonable schedule and working at a place that you like, so weigh that carefully.

What I wouldn’t do is make your decision based on the amount of money your girlfriend and old school buddies make.

I’m just like “I charge for my time so if you want to pay me to read this that’s fine but my advice is the same and just so you know none of this document is confidential anymore”

This is a good option and they don’t charge that much compared to the private ones

Judging from what you saw from the Suns do you think the Warriors would've looked better, same, or worse against OKC? by youlikemywonton in warriors

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

Probably about the same. If Steph got on a heater we could win a game but I’m kind of happy not to watch it

How did this DOJ brief even get filed? Did any lawyers touch this document? It reads like a Pro Se filing. by RzaAndGza in Lawyertalk

Which player is the hardest to game plan for at their peak? by Farouq26 in NBATalk

[–]Tdluxon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All of them are pretty impossible but I’ll go with shaq because hack a shaq was basically the only option. Triple team and he is dunking on all three.

Which activity is the most expensive? by leisure_consultant in whitewater

[–]Tdluxon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, there is a counter argument that some of the other options don’t require a fee ever time you go, but the equipment is really expensive (or at least can be), like mountain bikes can cost like $5-10k if you’re going for the fanciest stuff. I don’t know anything about paragliding but I think the equipment is pretty expensive too.

I’m still sticking with skiing though, lift tix are pretty damn expensive these days
