Just barely squeezing in at 39. Attorney at financial regulator. Awesome right? Except I'm right near the top of the staff pay and, so it's 25 years of nearly no pay increases. Yes, I agree, tiny violins. But also kinda sucks.

I'm a few years younger than you and also an attorney at financial regulator. That is really impressive that you are already at 250k. I'm nowhere near that.

38F, is that a bra size?

Lol, sad that such jokes can now only be made anonymously. Society needs to get the stick out of its *ss.

Pathetic that you think this misogyny is funny. You’re probably a short, bald man.

Sadly, it's probably another woman who doesn't care if she perpetuates this garbage treatment of women, even if she has a daughter herself.
