I will start work as a trial PD in my home state and according to my friends who are also PDs in this state in similar population counties I am almost certainly going to work close to 60hours a week. I am terrified that I will be forced to quit my dream job because of the strain this will put on my relationship with my wife. Ideally with experience my hours will go down (I dont think that's a realistic expectation though) or I will be able to transition to appellate defense, but idk if I can last long enough in trial work to transition in my state. Public defense is my dream job, but I won't allow it to come between me and my best friend.

Would appreciate any tips for working long hours and maintaining my marriage. (Im not as concerned with the subject matter of the job on my mental health, I believe I have healthy expectations)

Is this anything?

Obamna.

Despite receiving an "unsettling and inexplicable" (an obv rehearsed phrase he repeats throughout) invite to a private island -- from a man he and his wife were so disgusted by that they left his home immediately when they heard him make gross sexual comments about a massage table -- he accepted the invite and took 8 children with him.

He expects people to believe Epstein invited him to have a "boring . . . meaningless and inconsequential" chat over lunch

He only learned about his next-door Neighbor being a convicted sex-trafficker in 2019.

He learned mid-testimony that Epstein used to own his house.

Good stuff starts around pg. 45

>Q So I'm just focused on the single sentence, and I'll read it back. Quote, "So I was never in the room with him socially, for business, or even philanthropy." So is it your testimony that that sentence is, in a literal sense, accurate?

>A It is accurate as to what I meant, which is I, Howard Lutnick, as a man, would not be in a situation with him because I felt him gross and inappropriate and not having boundaries; that I would not put myself in a room with him socially, which I did not, professionally, in business, which I did not, and philanthropically, which I did not. I have described in detail the only two other times I saw him, and they were not social, they were not business, and they were not philanthropic for me, I. I was -- I had lunch with him with my wife and family, which I have described in detail, but that was not me putting myself with him, which is what I said and which is the point I tried to make.
