[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]He’s all talk up to this point. Will see how fast he can crank out rulemaking next year.

He probably thinks he’s a nice guy and maybe at a superficial level he is. He must know how profoundly the no telework policy has impacted staff and he doesn’t want to talk about it. Hence, he’s had no town halls.

He figured the rules will get written regardless and that’s all he cares about. I don’t know how all these rules will get written. Maybe someone on the outside already wrote them for him. [/quote]

I can answer that one for you.  We are hiring SGEs to come in and be workhorses for the new rules.  So basically people from law firms will come to the SEC temporarily and write these rules.  Presumably they will be unpaid as SGEs can continue to be paid by their law firms.[/quote]

lol. You’d have to be a total LOSER, on the slow track at your law firm, to even consider such a crap detail/assignment. Why on earth would anyone at a halfway decent firm give up their current cases/deals to go write a rule and sift through 10,000 comments for 6 months at a government agency.

Do these SGEs get to telework? [/quote]

Uh there are lots of losers at law firms. Did you not do biglaw ever? It's not some utopia of Harvard and Yale geniuses all dying to work 100 hrs/wk to make partner. There are ppl who are fine but nothing special who know they won't make partner, they take these types of things. There are ppl who are better than fine but still may not make partner who take these things bc it's 6 months of firm money while working a nothing govt job - they won't have to put in firm hours. There are people who are good but are done with firm life for whatever reason - usually hours - who take these things bc hey 6 more months of firm money while getting free evenings and weekends.
