These are all CA lawyers, yes? What's wrong with y'all?

Re: robert shapiro....
 

I bet half the people on this board are admitted in California, or once were. 'Nuff said.

Re: robert shapiro....
 

I got out. And I don't look back, although I like to visit. No offence.

Re: robert shapiro....
 

That's over half right there!

Re: robert shapiro....
 

The rest of us are waiting for California to change the rules for reciprocity.

A few weeks back I met with a few people from one of the largest health care lenders in the country on a potential deal we may be doing. One of those was the Chair/CEO. He started out as a lawyer, partner of a regional bigger firm, GC of the lender in its infancy, eventually his current position.

Outside of our deal, his personal advice to me was "lose the lawyer hat and grow your business side hat"......can I sell the law licenses that I have?

Re: robert shapiro....
 

Try eBay.

Unfortunately, mine doesn't qualify for antique status. Maybe I can trade with Wonk or Hank and then sell that one.....

Re: robert shapiro....
 

all you PB toadies count as 1 under Ty. otherwise Penske and I get to count our socks.

Re: robert shapiro....
 

Why all the poison on the board, Hank? Why can't you just talk about the issues instead of all the ad hominem attacks?

Re: robert shapiro....
 

venom is the better word choice

Re: robert shapiro....
 

The PB is the issues board. the rest is fluff. no offence.

FBI pwned by Wikipedia lawyers.

This is an olde article and actually happened on Bush's watch, right? Certainly the Obama administration would not engage in such brainless and oppressive endeavours.

Re: It was the wrong thread
 

when i was a quasi-judicial official of the US Dept of commerce I became a union rep to gain actual litigation experience. our union and the PTO management submitted conflicting contract provisions to binding arbitration. the arb decided. PTO appealled. we took the position no appeal was available.

the K required the final k be printed for the rank and file. we said let's print it. PTO said, "well okay, but with the parts we are challenging in italics." we go "no, because your managers will always treat those like they aren't really in the K."

so we up and printed it, and then sued them for the cost- then they conter sued us because we had put their seal on the cover.

then i quit having anything to do with labor law:cool::o
