Nothing like receiving the e-mail from opposing counsel on a Saturday that his client's elected to proceed pro per at trial Monday. This is going to be a goddamn poo poo show.

I think this is a clear breach of some protocol but maybe it was a lonely groin muscle or something. Either way it's creepy as hell. I picked the wrong time to remember this place exists. Wtf, guys?

I have no doubt that naval leadership in many places is ate up with terminal stupid, however: I would start at around $71k in just base pay. I have not found anything in Florida period that’s going to pay me more than that. Toss in BAH and nothing has even been half as good as navy pay. Plus I’ll be 13 years from a pension Going back into the military is my last option, but at the moment it is my highest paying option by a significant margin.

Man, that was a great easter break. So much sun and so much reading. Got a lot done if you don't count any actual work.blarzgh posted:Ok, so here is the list: Got done with joat mon posted:And of you like O'Brien and Jim Butcher, there's Butcher's The Aeronaut's Windlass. And thanks for recommending it, though the trilogy is nowhere near as good as Blindsight's quality, it's still pretty good. Also grabbed Munin posted:The Craft Sequence is solid. I like how it deals both with systems and the people said systems grind between their wheels; this without being as dehumanized and bleak as stuff by KJ Parker. And I'm gonna start on that when I get some time, thanks very much.

Law school really is a great place to learn about yourself, society, and all of your new besties after college! It's all fun and games until you get the bill/class rank results come out. I personally really liked a number of my professors, learned a lot (most of it impractical but hey learning is fun), and met my current partner in law school. I also struck out at OCI, failed to make the competition team I wanted to join, didn't make law review, and wanted to hurl the career advisors through a plate glass window.

Mr. Nice! posted:I have no doubt that naval leadership in many places is ate up with terminal stupid, however: I know I harped on it before and you had valid reasons for avoiding it, but if your situation has changed I strongly encourage you to look at federal work. Your military background gives you automatic hiring preference, which is a huge bump in an otherwise difficult hiring process. Pay is decent, hours are good, stress is relatively low, and your years in the military count toward pension retirement dates (I think).

Most posts I’ve seen require 2-5 years practice where I’m not officially at a year yet, even. So I’ve got to build up my resume more. Also most fed jobs mean I have to move to DC and I don’t know if I want to do that. I mean, i’ve only been there once and didn’t really experience anything more than a hotel and interviews with some engineers and an admiral.

Mr. Nice, definitely check out the fedthread. I was recently clued into a GS-9 IRS job (closed now, I think, unfortunately) that's basically autoqualified if you have a JD. I also have learned a lot about navigating the USAJobs deathspace; if you need any advice on that, PM me.

USAJobs application process; best case scenario (each dot = one month) Apply to 10 jobs Receive notice that you have been referred for 8/10 jobs, no word on the others (no word will ever come) . . Rejected from job 3 . . . . Preliminary selection for job 6 . Email to schedule interview for job 6 . . Phone interview . . Second interview . Rejected from jobs 1 and 4 . . . Child born . . Preliminary offer for job 6 Counteroffer asking for better step in grade . Donald Trump elected . Counter agreed to, new prelim offer for job 6 . Choose wisely

I learned a bit (though not a lot) in that area because I part time consult with a startup in that space. I generally think SA is at its best when people are sharing their knowledge, whether for information or comedy purposes. Also I have a self-destructive irrational belief borne of childhood trauma that everything that goes wrong in the world is my fault, so if I don’t correct people on dead comedy fora I’m a bad person sullat posted:Which one, the paralegal one?

In other news I've found someone to move my admission, after officially unasking the person I first asked due to a bunch of e/n bullshit. Gonna be real awkward if my new mover winds up with interstate work commitments and can't do it!
