[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I dont think its all that bad since there is actually work available.  I think it would be way worse to chastise people when there was no work available.[/quote]

It sounds like there are people who can work or work more and are not and it makes sense not to turn work down.  I don't see the issue.  They are there to make money.[/quote]

You are assuming he is telling the truth. Maybe he knew this would get into ATL and he's trying to blame associates for being slackers before they do a slew of layoffs. Instead of acknowedlging they arent getting enough work, he is blaming associates for ducking work. Who knows if they actually are.[/quote]

He's a lawyer. H[b]e knows the fired associates can request a forensic accountant to see just how much work their actually was.[/b]

Aside from that K&E is the largest law firm in D.C. I would not be surprised at all if they have a heavy workload because the federal government is pushing more stimulus plans and acts than ever before.

Half their notable former alumni, including a current SCOTUS Justice and the current White House Counsel, works in the Trump administration. All of them would be making sure K&E's back is scratched. [/quote]

This is....not a thing that happens when people get laid off at Biglaw.[/quote]

Yeah, what a ridiculous notion. Nobody gets to look behind the curtain once they are laid off. That PP obviously has never been in biglaw. [/quote]
This doesn't happen anywhere without a lawsuit and a discovery request, does it?[/quote]
