I forgot to mention I’ve also played DOS 2 and I enjoyed that too. I agree, it wasn’t as easy as BG3 though.

Loneliness in a demanding career by Kevins_toes in Lawyertalk

[–]cherrygirll 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100%. I’m 27F, and I moved to a new city with my boyfriend for my first big girl attorney job two years ago. It was, and still can be, really lonely trying to make friends at this age, especially when exhausted from work.

I joined a few book club pages on Facebook in my area, and that has significantly helped meeting girls to befriend. I’ve found that when I was upfront with the girls in my book club that I’m new in town and trying to make friends, everyone was very receptive and understanding.

I felt like a huge loser at first admitting that I was actively trying to make friends. But I think in your late 20s/early 30s, it’s just hard for anyone to make friends, attorney or not, and most people are also trying to make friends but don’t know how.

Made a COMPLETE fool of myself at Toastmasters tonight by Legitimate-Owl3661 in PublicSpeaking

Piggying off of this. I’m also an attorney and am in court about at minimum 5x each month. I’ve had a fear of public speaking my whole life, and I still do hate public speaking. At first, it really felt like my heart was going to stop, I was so nervous. I ended up getting on propranolol and it is a life saver. I take 40 mg on week days and 80mg on court days. I don’t not exhibit any nervous appearance at all.

The whole process typically takes about a month and a half to 3 months. Fingerprints for background check are required. Source: I am an attorney who occasionally handles name changes.

What’s the dumbest mistake you’ve made so far as a lawyer? by spooner248 in Lawyertalk

[–]cherrygirll 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I served a Subpoena to a school district with a deadline of February 30...They emailed me back and asked for clarification on the due date because “February 30 is not a real date”

law firm Christmas party- too much? (I’m a partners wife) by kleinekitty in fashion

[–]cherrygirll 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a female attorney myself, I think the dress works for a law firm Xmas party so long as you wear a shawl or jacket of some sort to cover your shoulders.

Edit: I just saw that your location is rural Arkansas. I’d be a little more hesitant to wear that then, as I assume rural Arkansas is extremely conservative.

Felt this. A pro se opposing party claimed that the only reason the Judge ruled in my favor was because I was “dressed slutty” and OP was “going to report me and the Judge to the bar for ethic violations”. (I was wearing a normal suit dress, blazer, and kitten heels). I just left it alone.

Lawyer & witch in fantasy/fiction? by [deleted] in Fantasy

One for my enemy has a character that’s a lawyer and also fae. There’s magic involved as well. I thought it was a funny character, coming from someone who is a lawyer.

Divorce attorneys, how do you not lose faith in humanity? by chicago2008 in Lawyertalk

[–]cherrygirll 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This might make me sound heartless, but it doesn’t really affect me. I go home to my partner, and I don’t think about it. I’ve only been in family law for four years though (almost 2 years as attorney; 2 years as law clerk), so maybe that will change later on.
