I worked for one of those -- poor departments are already super underfunded and overwhelmed

Eggan

10:01

and they could only give unpaid internships :,)

soap

10:01

As a labor person, if they try to cut one of those departments I'm going to be so disappointed

soap

10:01

I think a lot of folks don't realize how important they are'

Eggan

10:02

morgan lewis, littler mendelson etc will celebrate until they realize they have no work from companies anymore bc no more unions to bust

Eggan

10:03

same with arbitrators. they'll be out of work too. let alone all the union staffers and labor lawyers

Eggan

10:03

there's a whole labor industry that relies on the NLRB to maintain equilibrium

soap

10:04

Yepppp. it's concerning. Plus if you're a lawyer at all, you should be in support of the justice and fact-finding process

soap

10:04

Nuance and investigation is so important, no matter whether you're on labor or company side

deeply concerned what the trump admin will do with my agency

Eggan

wheres jaime lanister when you need him

soap

10:05

That was definitely my biggest takeaway from my labory experiences over the years -- these issues are always incredibly complex

soap

10:06

If they get rid of all labor laws, I guess I'll pivot to tech law, I have a little study experience in that

soap

10:08

But, really, the NLRB and EEOC do so much to keep checks and balances in the system, I saw firsthand how companies were really spurred to think critically about choices due to those agencies

Yale interview in an hour ... I am nervy

ImpartialLion

10:25

@BigStrongBug I had one yesterday. It’s pretty relaxed. I’m sure you’ll do great!

soap

10:25

Oooh, good luck!

ImpartialLion

10:27

Instead of Why Yale, they might ask you about the “pros and cons” of Yale which is what they did for me. Might be helpful to prepare a con ahead of time if you haven’t already!

Odds we get HLS II today? Last year they did II on 11/02 and 11/08

info-man

10:44

might depend on how far along they've gotten with interviews already

info-man

10:44

they indicated on their blog that interviews would begin this week so i could see them holding off on sending out more invites until they've already completed a good chunk of the interviews they requested

ImpartialLion

Thanks for the info!
