““Could the Pres. decide that he wasn’t going to appoint or allow to remain in office any female heads of agencies or any heads over 40 yrs old?”
“I think that that would be w/in the Pres.’s constitutional authority” talkingpointsmemo.com/news/doj-tru...

It was state to state. Last state allowed women on juries in 1968. Oh, those good old days. 12 Angry Men was in NY, which started allowing women on state juries in 1927. However The Civil Rights Act of 1957 gave women the right to serve on federal juries. They were still often excluded.
The Curse of the Tenth Grave by Darynda Jones. I tore through the first 8 on KU and ended up having to buy the last 5, which was disappointing. But I love the series.
Done. Thanks!
With layoffs possible, many people are wondering what to do if the axe falls. While this is a stressful time, it’s also an opportunity to prepare. Here are some things to think about if you are about to be fired or laid off #LawSky #legaltwitter #emplaw employeeatty.blogspot.com/2019/03/i-th...

You don't have a copy of your noncompete and can't figure out how to get one without asking management, who would definitely penalize you just for asking. How are you supposed to know what your restrictions are if you don’t have a copy? Here’s how. tinyurl.com/hpzc2e7d #LawSky #legaltwitter #emplaw
Have you seen Union yet? It’s the documentary about the Amazon Labor #Union and how they organized the warehouse in Staten Island.

I don’t think the press covered this very well. I had a huge rush of people very excited that their noncompetes went poof with the FTC rule. I told them not to get too excited. With no federal rule in place, it will be up to the states. #lawtwitter #LawSky employeeatty.blogspot.com/2024/08/judg...
Older employees frequently targeted in layoffs. There’s an assumption that the "old guys" will be retiring soon anyhow so it doesn't matter. It does.

I’m going to post some of my oldie goldie blog posts here that provide some general #employmentlaw info that might be helpful. I’ve recently retired so haven’t posted lately but will start again soon. Meanwhile, I hope these posts help. #lawsky #emplaw employeeatty.blogspot.com/2010/10/over...
Awesome! Thanks.
Fantastic! Thanks.
Really enjoyed it! It felt like old home week. We got to revisit lots of things that happened in prior books from a different angle.
Fantastic! Thanks.
Amazing. Thanks.
Escaping politics for awhile. My art class is my sanity’s savior. Here’s my latest painting. It’s a Florida panther. I was going to call it Panther’s Dessert but my art teacher has named it Cougar Melon and I just can’t top that.
