You're now a Alpha-Lawyer?
Or Czech?
Not yet. There is still a Partner level. :P
But my firm is notorious for how hard it is to make a partner (other lawyers will recognize it, I guess, when I tell them that in our office we have 9 partners to about 90 lawyers). I'm now one of 16 Counsels. :P
:cheers:
:showoff:
Congrats! :cheers:
:worthy:
A big pay raise?
I don't follow, how exactly is this anti-gay? You wouldn't have posted it otherwise.
Tournée générale? :cheers:
Congrats! You must earn, what, four times what I make now? Cocktails on you next time ;)

Not fully agreed yet, but I expect about 20-25% on what I earn now (which corresponds to about 15% on what I earned before the crisis, when they decided to cut our pay by 10% across the board :shakesfist: )
:cool: :thumbsup:

You are my idol :showoff:
Martinus has managed to trick lawyers into thinking he's actually a lawyer so well that he's moving up the ranks?
Well done! :cheers:
You gotta give a little head to get ahead, Neil. :)

It's possible he's simply the best Lawyer in Poland.
Congrats Marty! :cheers:
He would be Prime Minister if he were actually a lawyer.
I knew those interpersonal skills would pay off at some point. :cheers:

Congratulations then.
I know who to call if I run into trouble on the Russian border.

What can I say - I have a reputation for being a bit of an angry drama queen at work.
But I have a sense of humour and can say I'm sorry - which (surprisingly) is not that common. :P

I've noticed that people with your affliction tend to share that trait.

The flip-side is that we rarely take an alpha/macho pose either, and that pose aggravates more people than an occasional outburst followed by a joke and an attempt at perceived empathy. :P
I think one of the best traits of "people with my affliction" is the ability to be self-depreciating - I know a lot of people who can't do this and are widely considered to be pompous pricks.
You guys all like to mock Martinus but I just want to say in front of everyone reading this that he is my best friend (more than a friend really) and I am extremely proud of him and his accomplishments.

That's because homosexuality started in England :)
Yeah, I've never known an arrogant gay, and boy oh boy have I known a lot of gays. :hug:

I didn't actually congratulate you Marti.
Congrats! Just surviving in a big firm like yours is accomplishment enough. A promotion is even better. :cheers:
Yeah, congrats Martinus!
