Sell cookies, do swabbing, keep calm. Or volunteer to be the next Tony Stark. Or paralegal for 3 years. All options lead to a better QoL than being a lawyer

Why would you send scrap metadata to them

And how do you tell as a junior what is justified or not?

You don't think there is reason for scolding at all in the workplace? You must work somewhere really nice... So I suppose when you send out the affidavit with typos the partner should just go "oh well" and fire your ass straightaway eh?

Partners don’t really want to fire people. It’s easy to fire but hard to find a replacement - partner has to justify it to other partners (team has high utilisation, need more people). So in a lot of teams, the team becomes smaller and smaller because people leave and they are not replaced.

In short, juniors are seldom really fired. They are quite valuable - if they are fired, the partner has less people to do work for him/her.

Especially if your own partner doesn't know the law...

Maybe his father is a big shot so he won't get fired. The father may fire the partner from the file

Do the FLAs here ever fire or retrench people? I heard some firms have begun pay cuts and retrenchment

Don't be a cock can already they won't fire unless you're a non-merit hire. That one need a good excuse to fire.
