Karen's Corner—September 2023

"No Spendtember"; what to do if you don't get the BigLaw job you want; and the new RHONY reboot

For those who are new to “One First,” thank you for joining us here at Karen’s Corner—a once-monthly bonus issue of “One First” from Steve’s better half. Consider this less of a nerdy Supreme Court review, and more like the One First After Dark, where we get real about all things in the legal profession, parenthood, and life more generally.

Like the other Thursday “One First” bonus issues, the bulk of these monthly missives will be for paid subscribers only. If that’s already you, thanks! And if it’s not, now’s a good time to consider signing up for something that costs less than an oat milk latte! (Steve will be back Monday with the free, boring stuff; he muttered something about Justice Frankfurter and Chief Justice Vinson’s death.)

One First is a reader-supported publication, whether you prefer the drier Monday content or the spicier Thursday issues. Please consider adding your support if you don’t already!
