WAR ROOM LOUNGE V23: November Sixth LOOMS

[Quipling]

What do you do Quip?

I'm an attorney, but in my current position I spend most of my time in an informal setting, so I probably don't go through ties nearly as quickly as Gregolian right now.

 

[Cubo de Sangre]

Move to Hawaii. Only losers wear ties here.

Cool. Maybe you and ole Greg can meet in the same courtroom get a selfie!

I had the chance to be stationed in Hawaii and chose swampy North Carolina instead.

True redneck detected.

Nah, I would've liked to have been stationed in SoCal too (29 Palms included because I love the desert). Fuck being overseas though for 3+ years.

Yeah I’d have no desire to be stationed outside the US.

5 days a week for 9.5 hours a day only 8 paid (yes, I'm petty enough to count the commute and unpaid lunch into that)

That would include Greg though... lawyers, judges, court clerks and bailiffs wear ties. If I testify it's either full class A uniform or suit and tie.

Maybe he could find a better job too?

I count my commute when weighing salaries v. rent. If I can cut an hour off my commute by renting downtown or near good public transit, I'm effectively getting paid more per hour, so I'll pay that much more for rent.

Not surprised you found a Husky tie at a yard sale...

When I’m in Class A is about the only time I wear a tie.
























And it’s a clip on.

Lol our Class As don’t even have a tie

Germany was the sweet bro. Being a good looking US soldier in Germany was like being a rock star. Deutsch poon lined up and taking a number looking for that meal ticket, it was a glorious time.

Off topic so I'm taking this to the Lounge @IngaVovchanchyn

As far as I know governments aren't referring people to these courts, the people themselves voluntarily go because they see it as a way of facilitating their practice of their religion. And in fact its arguably closer to the historical application of the Sharia than the compulsive application you see in some modern Muslim majority countries.

The one complaint about these courts that I've seen that makes sense is that in countries like the UK many immigrants, specifically women, know little to no English and aren't always aware of their rights and could be taken advantage of in these courts if they're made to believe that they're not voluntary or not made aware of alternatives. But I'm not sure how often that actually happens and even if it does I don't think that should mean these courts should be abolished, rather they should be regulated so that both parties are made aware before agreeing to arbitration that its voluntary and what their rights are as citizens.

This is the part that makes the most sense to me. So yes, in this limited sense you describe, I'm all for it.
