The firm said it will offer each affected new associate the chance to work in a public interest organization for that year and will pay each a $5,000 monthly stipend. The firm could save $85,000 in salary per associate and possibly more if the firm does not offer benefits.
Wow. That's kind of cool, really. But hard on the people expecting to be corporate attorneys, obviously!

Sophie, I think grey would be an acceptable school jacket colour.
Sophia, I think that if there's a jacket to the uniform they'd be, um, uniform.
I think the uniform jackets come with the patches on them. However, I have seen patches in fabric stores (I think ... it's been a while). You could get something with a coat of arms kind of look that would probably do the job.

Er...I should probably mention that the majority of my classmates at that school were spoiled brats and by senior year I was quite happy to have no real friends.

But you're awesome! And if Em turns out to be even a smidge as awesome, WIN!
who'm I kidding? Like we could ever afford it. I'm getting depressed at the idea of schools after kindergarten.
Gray is pretty common, but stripes, not so much. You could get patches like these: [link]
My minion really doesn't think I can hear her, apparently. Yesterday, I finally mentioned to her that she should be conscious of what's going on around her if she's on a personal phone call. My boss has mentioned it to me several times that minion always seems to be on a personal call. (Note: I overhear boss on a personal phone call at least once a day...) So I tried to be explicit, telling minion that it's not an issue for me, because I know she gets her work done, but she should be aware when other people are around. She said something about office politics, and I said absolutely -- this is about appearances, not reality. I pointed out that I could be at my desk emailing friends all day (heh), but no one would ever know, so if my performance is fine, it's fine.
So I just heard her on the phone saying to someone, "Didn't I tell you I can't get calls here anymore???"
Oh, minion.
It's really startling to tear open an orange and discover that it's actually a blood orange. I did not expect to see bright red liquid spurting at that particular moment.

Maybe she thought the easiest way to deal with the problem is to tell this person not to call her at work?
