Doc review is super boring, no stress, and decently lucrative. It’s pretty great.

Look Sir Droids posted:Lol never heard anyone describe doc review as lucrative. Pittsburgh has a ridiculously low cost of living, my live-in ex-wife makes good money, I sold my house, and even with one week off out of every 4 I’m making more than my PD colleagues with 5-6 years experience. My company is $26 unlicensed, $32 licensed with no OT limit.

Puppy Dog Pals is stupid because my daughter watches Vampirina on DisneyJr on my laptop and instead of going to the next episode, it forces PDP on her and she gets pissed until I change it.

Discendo Vox posted:OK, another question related to my earlier one. Do any of you deal with case or document management systems at work, what do you use, and what should people looking into that software area know? I’ve used CLIO and LegalEdge. CLIO is dope but LegalEdge made me want to slit my wrists. Same for OnBase.

Discendo Vox posted:Tell me more, please. What context, and what made things dope or miserable? I used CLIO for the two years I did clinic. It was awesome for document automation, keeping client files organized, being able to work from anywhere, and a really easy interface. The downside is that it’s a little expensive. LegalEdge was designed to work on WindowsXP, has terrible functionality, and I think is only used by PD offices because it’s cheap. Same with OnBase.

I usually hung out at Torimasa, My Place, and the legendary Forevers when I was there July 2002 - May 2005. One night I was out at the Wood Company listening to Japanese dudes jam out and stop playing a second before I turned to my buddy and said “That chick is hot” in reference to our ENS watch officer. The guy she was there with, a Lt. jg on another shift gave me the dirtiest look. Mr. Nice! posted:Toona isn't old enough for that to work either, I don't think. I'm still able to enjoy the story.

Florida has a search engine where you can punch in any state employee’s name and see what they’re paid, so I looked up a guy I know. The director of my former office makes 106k with 30+ years of experience. The top paid lawyers who are in their 60s-70s make 72-83k.

No, it was a building that housed Conservative and Reconstructionist sects. Lots of overlap with friends and such. Two special needs brothers who are involved with the same group as my daughter were also murdered as well as a 97 year old holocaust survivor. When I served on my temple board, we discussed about having our doors locked during services, but realized that that barrier is entirely antithetical to progressive Reform Judaism, but now I can foresee it happening and it’s loving awful.

In true Jewish fashion, I was talking to another guy from my temple about what happened and how the rabbi emeritus gave an interview and said that thankfully, services often have a late arriving crowd. He turned to me and deadpanned “Jewish time, now saving lives.”

blarzgh posted:I'm a qualified mediator because the Course was free to me and totaled like 3 years of carry-over CLE credit. Free to me is why I’m here. The instructor was one of my professors in a mediation class I took. Basically she said it would enable me to do the mandatory custody and divorce mediation, and some low level federal stuff like SEC disputes. She has a mediation firm and is willing to throw me a few bones.
