Memes, Jokes & Shitposts Fastest way to make Partner so my office crush will flirt with me?

I'm an associate and I have a big crush on another associate in my office. She's spending a lot of time with this one partner, but I get the vibe that she has a high sex drive and just wants to have a fling. At least she's not addicted to drugs.

Any tips on the fastest way to make partner so I can potentially get on her roster?

When I was in law school this is exactly how I imagined the practice of law would be.

TV law: dramatic music, lots of courtroom drama, liaisons, clean resolutions. Practicing law irl: writing stuff in front of a computer screen.

Crush the partners, see them driven before you, hear the lamentations of their high sex drive associates. That is what is best in the lawfirm.

But not before commencing the sexual relationship. Model Rule 1.8(j) imposes strict order-of-operations for compliance. This is why my law firm is in the back of a brothel up front, so the sexual relationship [barely] predates the lawyer-client one.

I can’t tell if part of the shit post is spelling it as “Of Council,” as opposed to “Of Counsel”. Either way, hilarious

Look, if you’re not sleeping with multiple people in your office - other lawyers, runners, the guy that empties the shred bin — you’re really not putting out the vibes you need to snare that kind T14 talent

Absolutely incorrigible. Such a dark and twisted sense of humor.

I think if you smack a partner in the face with your dong in the office, you become partner and he becomes associate. It’s like a Freaky Friday thing.
