(at my second rodeo) this isn’t my first rodeo
Scott is spot on. Some partners bemoan “this generation.” They say this crop associates just can cut it—that they lack drive and motivation. I call bullshi**. It’s the opposite. This generation sees BS for what it is. And they refuse to accept it. They want to work hard, but in…

I wonder if any judges are boycotting schools because a small part of them is still a bit bitter from when that law school didn’t accept them. “You rejected me? Now I reject you.”
@BarExamTutor @SwattyKay @iworkwithmyword Anybody who is of the vocal opinion that the bar exam is a good measure of whether a person will make a good lawyer is someone I will not retain or refer others to. They don't even have to be strident, much less this strident.
ANNOUNCEMENT: after much reflection, I’ve decided that my last five years of aging doesn’t count, as they took place under strange and unusual circumstances. please respect my decision and feel free to join me
Whenever someone asks me what my best class in law school was, I just look at them sadly and say “whatever Con Law used to be.”

Why is the “in” in “infamous” in parentheses? Clearly I need to work harder.

The most powerful tool of oppression is keeping you so busy with the daily struggle that you don’t have the time to connect all the dots and become truly enraged.

Can confirm this does NOT fill me with confidence! Maybe we should just get off?

@LizCGil Like, no Bob, I’m not going to miss my friend’s birthday dinner bc you want a treatise on some issue ASAP. Google it yourself or wait till business hours. 🙄
@LizCGil So true! When I need to work long hours or miss an event for an actual emergency, I get it - but I’m not willing to pull an all nighter for something I know is a waste of time or doesn’t need to be done *right now.* Newer lawyers are better at prioritizing!
@dandelionmama @LizCGil No one wants to be part of the generation that says "it was this way for me, I don't want it to be for you"
@LizCGil Oh, it’s the “nobody wants to work these days” argument brought to us by the same people who don’t want to pay well, demand job dedication 24/7, and expect us to sit down, shut up, and follow orders.
@LizCGil This is me. After months of working 7 days a week, I gave notice--I tried to negotiate, I let them know it wasn't working for me & was told "that's just the way it is." I *could* do it (evidenced by my work) but I was not *willing* to do it --so I quit.
@LizCGil We all work remotely; and, with flexible hours. The goal is to perform.qualoty legal work. If that means doing it during non-standard hours, then so be it. We meet weekly ro discuss every case. But, most of our communication, otherwise, is asynchronous. It works for us.
@LizCGil Absolutely agree. The hand waving to “generational laziness” is infuriating.
@saraaaaajean @LizCGil This. I’ve lived a version of this tale and I’m going to make things different for myself and my family. And you better believe a big part of that is bending my career to what my personal life needs.
@LizCGil (I quit within a year for that wolf in sheep’s clothing. It’s a long story.)
@saraaaaajean @LizCGil I demanded equal compensation for equal workload and my time. Some people believe in the carrot on the stick, and jumping through hoops to prove themselves, but you need me just as much. Show it.
@LizCGil Tell the Boomers in language they can understand: It’s called capitalism. Associates aren’t going to take sh*t from partners who treat them like servants. Keep doing it and they’ll leave, go somewhere else (where it’s better) and take your clients. Free markets and all. ☮️☮️
@LizCGil Chicago Law seeing this for sure. Firms are reduced to posting an ad for a "law firm" and not use their name, cause no one wants to work there.
@LizCGil That last sentence. Law was a second career for me, I came into it having already had a successful career in another tough industry. The routine abuse I saw/experienced in biglaw was beyond and it drove good attorneys away. Glad to see the lawyers coming up aren't taking it.
@LizCGil When people don’t know how to distinguish the lack of motivation and drive from lack of tolerating disrespect, and like you said, abuse. Everyone looked at me like I was nuts when I told my boss that I would take my laptop home on the weekend when he gave me more compensation.
i would encourage all the men upset about a bear to stop being so emotional and try smiling ☺️
When I think business development, I think of nights like tonight, where I meet people and connect on a personal level. It’s the most fun. Now, I just gotta follow through.
