An ATL / Kramer Levin Public Service Announcement: Don't Forget to Spring Forward This Weekend
From a student at Duke Law School:
I had to laugh out loud at Kramer Levin's use of the daylight savings time maxim, "spring ahead/spring forward," to suggest that we could do the same for our careers by coming to their firm. See the flyer below, which they seem to have sent to the entire 1L class.
Actually, we think it's kinda cute! Check out those otherworldly tulips:
And it's a helpful reminder for overworked law firm associates. If you have a conference call scheduled for, say, this Sunday morning at 10, you don't want to miss it.

I will be FIRST to oversleep due to the time change.
How much do you think they billed to clients to create this announcement?
Duke should be happy that Kramer is even advertising there.
3:42,
You mean:
Kramer should be happy that Duke even allows it to advertise there.
I went to KL out of NYU for 4 years - I thought it was an excellent firm and gave me a great general corporate background. A good springboard to being GC of a large company now. I have only good things to say about them. Well. Mostly good things.
Kramer is a fantastic place to work in terms of the partners, people, and quality of work. Kramers gives associates a lot of responsibilities early. Many associates have come here from firms like Simpson, Paul Weiss, Debevoise, Shearman, Davis Polk, etc. and say they are much happier AND are doing much more interesting work than their former sweatshops.
Oh - and by the way - they didn't care that I was a homo back when most firms did. Oy.
It was amusing because they sent a recruiting email to 'help' us remember DST, not because the idea of springing one's career forward at KL is off-base.
I hope this post doesn't discourage them from continuing to recruit at Duke. :-/
looks like something's gonna spring out of that orange box. creepy.
