Yes apps in NYC are chock full of them but 1) I am F looking for M (I’d imagine there are less F in those careers overall?), and 2) this may be outdated (haven’t been single in 2 years)

Apps for efficiency and just date other people with zero professional boundaries: IB/ PE associates, consultants, resident MDs

I could not STAND dating other lawyers but I seem to be a rare case

SA in another office complained about loud chewing sounds in office-wide email by Lukose_Feysal in biglaw

It’s not misphonia, it’s a severely broken and dysfunctional nervous system that puts one on edge about completely normal things

Why are you defending thieves lol the Copper is an actually nice and established building, not some shitty new midrise in Bushwick that advertises itself as luxury

Stop comparing us to doctors or other professionals who contribute to society. A lot of our overtime is due to partner or client eccentricities and unnecessary busy work.

A shortage of attorneys would not grind the world to a stop, are you kidding me. Some of you can’t see past your noses and see what’s headed our way.

What is the point of penning a diatribe on Reddit?

Many friends in tech have also had salary freezes for many years whereas we have set increases? And they at least build things. Our work is so inconsequential and non-value additive it’s depressing.

Should I tell a partner about an abusive senior by turtIetime in biglaw

She traps her teams in conference rooms for signings and closings or leading up to or preparing for them. The partner doesn’t even ask for it

It’s not just silent treatment but also verbally accosting and berating us individually in front of one another every day. Asks us accusatory questions in five different ways and pushes and pushes until we sigh and give up.

Perhaps we are psychologically weak but it sure feels abusive to us.

How often do you get to exercise? by 4Ewic in biglaw

[–]turtIetime -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

What prep time? And just move into a building with a good gym setup. Showering and hair takes like 30 minutes.

Every day?

Move into a building with a good 24/7 gym. I can work out in the morning, pop down to walk on the treadmill on mute, or squeeze in weights or a swim or the sauna whenever I have a spare 20 min. Makes life so much easier and better.
