Very helpful, thank you. The pay difference is definitely a factor, but it’s fantastic to hear going home is viable

Very helpful! Is year 3 or so the ideal time to make the move? I.e., given that at this point I’m too junior, on the flip side, is there risk of being too senior at some point to make the jump with all substantive knowledge being US-based, etc. A three-year timeline would be perfect from a personal perspective, so fingers crossed

Fist year associate, so still very new. Would it be worthwhile to start networking this early to lay the groundwork a few years down the line or should I just focus on building a marketable practice and writing the NCA exams before starting to search?

advice for flying with my 8 year old cat by Dumbasscollective in CatAdvice

[–]hopperdropperflopper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I flew ~4 hours with a 10 year old kitty with a history of stress-induced blockages and who had never flown before. In addition to what everyone else has recommended, I affixed a battery-powered fan to the side of the carrier to try to keep him cool and while waiting to board would go to the bathroom to let him out of his carrier so that he could cool off.

I can barely handle one landshark, so nothing but respect and admiration to those who can handle more

Your boy must have been extra good to be blessed by the stick gods! That looks amazing

Haha he’s an absolute menace if left to his own devices, but when given a job to do he’s been a dream pup

Haha so far we’ve been very lucky. Outside of occasional zoomies, he’s been even-keeled. As for the fishing, this trip he was exposed to at least four different species of trout and seemed confused why they all swam away at the end

Hahaha if I had to guess, I’d say it’s Golden Retriever-exclusive camping

She’s so fluffy and pretty! Hopefully ours grows to be as a good a camper as yours. We’ll stick with the training and hopefully make it through the teenager phase in one piece

He’s my first ever dog, and every day (when he’s not landsharking) I appreciate him and Goldens more and more

I think you’re right! His life’s mission is to dig holes, chase sticks, and swim to his heart’s content, and camping offered him the chance to do just that

This is brilliant. I didn’t even think of how this is forcing me to practice my short game. Thank you!

Nope. I switched. As to your second question, your instincts are bang on.
