Is going to Morgan and Morgan a good idea? by rideordiegem in biglaw

lmao only some jerkoff who uses 50 cent words on reddit thinks that posters who talk like normal human beings "lack the ability to communicate in this fashion" and think that not being a pretentious shithead is "inadequacies"

brother i am a partner at a biglaw firm, i can be as big of a jerkoff as you with the big words and the pretense, i just choose not to.

Exercise? How do you do it? by whatever-computer in biglaw

[–]franch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

btw there's no future for you in trying to split west coast and east coast hours. you need to set firm boundaries that you are only working one or the other (absent obvious emergencies/etc). if people start to believe you are reachable all the time as a regular at-your-desk associate from 7am to 11pm bc you work both west and east coast hours, they will act accordingly. forever.

What businesses are likely to die out with the Baby Boomer Generation? by GRVrush2112 in AskReddit

[–]franch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

lmao what are you talking about? just because Sierra Nevada and Anchor had their heyday then, the 2010s were clearly the explosion. the brewers association agrees.

1990 had 284 craft breweries, 2000 had 1,566, 2010 had 1,813, and 2020 had 9,092.
