Don't say "karma;" a lot of people are about to lose their jobs. But I will tell you that there are no accidents. It hurt like hell to be laid off in March, and this would've hurt equally.

ouch! I've been talking to my recruiter and she has been telling me how very tough it is out there... could you PM me with the name of the firm? Professional courtesy? How are you doing these days?

6. Get a job with a labor law firm
There are not enough labor lawyers out there for when card check gets passed (after the election). Labor law is about to explode.

7. I have enjoyed watching a certain firm's stock drop
into the toilet, even while knowing that their executives will make sure that their own nests are well feathered.

9. I am sorry to hear that -
Would it be Thelen by any chance? I used to work there before the mergers when it was Reid & Priest.
