Use you phone before or after you drive, and don't be so narccistic & arrogant to think your conversation is so important that raising the risk of killing a fellow driver (or whole family) is worth it. If it is an important emergency then pull over and take the call. And stop being a cell junkie...if you're driving, busy, active or just plain have a life...let it go to voicemail. It's easy. And what intelligent humans do. I can see where Creationists, FOX NEWS viewers, anti-metric-system folks, etc...might not have the common sense to realize how they are putting others in danger needlessly by driving while using a cell, but that is what laws are for.darkbiologyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18199860580962265256noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1803277458234915829.post-34588774537434103982009-04-28T11:38:00.000-05:002009-04-28T11:38:00.000-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06587813547177052804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1803277458234915829.post-10182434651245543302009-04-08T18:09:00.000-05:002009-04-08T18:09:00.000-05:00I did not do PMBR.

Fascinated. Because I highly suspect that (1) those women still had high grades, regardless whether your rank was marginally higher, and (2) those women probably interviewed very well. <BR/><BR/>Look, a certain hot girl got a lot more job offers than I did first year and I was first in the class, for crying out loud, but I didn't chalk it up to her hotness. She's just really good at networking, writing thank-you notes, and interviewing.

There's definitely room for disagreement...please do so now that we're not harassing each other about things like raccoon posts.<BR/><BR/>1. I never said grades are luck-based. However, they ARE (and this is objectively defensible) an exceptionally poor indicator of REAL talent and ability at this stage of one's career.<BR/><BR/>2. Employers have to use SOMEthing to even begin the search process. I absolutely agree. Above all, I'm a pragmatist at heart. My contention is that both people with my perspective AND employers would be better served if a more accurate system of indicators for talent and skill (probably including grades as a major factor...) could triumph over the current piss-poor methods of making those initial decisions.Guy Fawkeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00794977817814051873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1803277458234915829.post-40168961539375220702009-02-05T06:56:00.000-06:002009-02-05T06:56:00.000-06:00Though I am generally inclined to agree with your ...Though I am generally inclined to agree with your statement about grades not meaning much, you must admit the slightest correlation between hard work (hours invested in studying) and grades. Grades are not <I>purely</I> a crap shoot. I refuse to accept this assertion.<BR/><BR/>Let's state the value of grades from the employer's perspective, though. Having associates in the XX% allows for the esteem or "elite" factor, giving firms a false sense of quality based on some arbitrary qualification. But, further, hiring an associate in the top XX% states that someone, somewhere, has qualified said associate to perform "better" than (1-XX%) of the rest of a group of law students. Does this not somewhat relocate the responsibility of an associate's performance away from the partner who hired him, and place it instead on the registrar at a law school? This provides for the obligatory out: "Who knew Associate XYZ was a (insert insult)...I mean, they were top XX% in the class."<BR/><BR/>In some respects, grades play an important factor. You will be reminded this as soon as you are a young associate at any firm, and the responsibility comes to you to determine who gets interviews. Will you then say that "grades are an arbitrary metric" and interview the kid at the bottom of his class simply to prove a point? Or will you, like the vast majority of current attorneys, use class rank as a sorting metric to find your ideal candidate?Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12846384663396059326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1803277458234915829.post-31272376405395106512009-02-04T17:57:00.001-06:002009-02-04T17:57:00.001-06:00(Sexism intended for whatever purpose you see fit)...(Sexism intended for whatever purpose you see fit)Phaedrushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17280121963485620733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1803277458234915829.post-68380571599037219862009-02-03T12:35:00.000-06:002009-02-03T12:35:00.000-06:00I love that one, but it's not quite as good as "On...I love that one, but it's not quite as good as "Only 10% of lawyers graduated in the top 10% of their class."Phaedrushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17280121963485620733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1803277458234915829.post-53306571687742082132009-02-03T09:30:00.000-06:002009-02-03T09:30:00.000-06:00I gave one a pep talk the other day.
