What I don't understand is why some firms have gotten rid of bonuses of frozen salaries but are still interviewing laterals!! wtf?! I need some #%$%# billables!

Then you have people like Stevenp who comment on blogs attempting to call people out when he or she is wrong themselves. I love idiots. I don't love them when they are in BigLaw. But then I love them again when they are laid off.

ooops. we were left-button-on-the-mouse happy.

these lay offs are starting to bore me. It's like suffereing from a series of small heart attacks. The first one sucks but then when you have a bunch more, it's like *meh* and then when you die, it won't be significant or tragic, especially when they find you sprawled over your due diligence documents at 4pm on a Tuesday.

I'm not trying to downplay lay offs as they are a major event in an individuals life. I'm just saying it's one more way the Man is making us insignificant. Now even those who get laid off are just one of the many and insignificant. Damn! How does The Man do that? He gets us every time...

76: I agree, the more fungible you are, the worse it is when you get laid off. you're just one of those many a**holes who couldn't sing at an American Idol audition.

If you've been laid off, we'd like to hear from you in our comment section (a few people have already commented). Let us know what you're doing, what your plans are, etc. Are you going to travel? go back to school? lateral? (god help you...)

oh, I didn't know lay offs were still newsworthy. I thought they were common place and expected.

Like, oh, today the sun rose. and let's write a blog about it and guess what?? the sun will rise tomorrow (yay to all those who got the David Hume reference. everybody else, go read a book that actually makes you use your brain in a logical way instead of vegetating in BigLaw b.s.).

59: it's sort of like the theme of our blog. It's the blog for people who let co-workers drive drunk to eliminate the competition.

Nothing sums up BigLaw more than that statement right there.

Look, it's time to face the music. your ass is on the line and they're gonna lay you off sooner or later. Time to draft your f*ck you very much Good Bye email. Or you can use one of ours!

http://stuffbiglawassociateslike.wordpress.com/2009/03/01/biglaw-associates-like-goodbye-emails/

hey you know what? let's start posting about places that are actually hiring. Now THAT would be news. Who isn't laying off? (and please, don't be a koolaid drinker and answer that that rhetorical question with a b.s. statement that you're firm is great and stable and not laying off. Stop drinking the koolaid. Koolaid makes your sperm swim slower.)

Let's hope the staff is as savvy as the lawyers are when demanding severance!
