“ The ex-hippies were the worst people to work for. If you went into a forty-something partner's office and saw a picture of him with hair down to his shoulders, you were in trouble. You would be dealing with someone whose cynicism was boundless, a shark in pinstripes, a creature to whom decency was just an old-fashioned superstition favored by the old, the foolish, and the weak.”

This. I worked a bit with a partner that played in a band. Everyone seemed to think he was cool. We all went to hear them play, and I left after like 20 mins. Pure fucking trash. He was also a big dick. Would pop off at a misplaced modifier.

Whenever I see someone with an intentionally placed guitar in their zoom background I always think they must be a douche bag.

you can usually tell when there's passion in it vs a display piece

like if it's up on a mount and the placement is ergonomically friendly vs something they have at a perfect level for visibility then i don't really think much of it

functional art is still art. it'd be about the intentions of the display

i'm thinking the guitar thats on a stand far in the background like it's intentionally in the screen to be seen but so far away that this person is never just grabbing it at his desk and it's got no business being where it is.

I interviewed with a guy at Paul Hastings that had a bunch of Grateful Dead memorabilia in his office. Don't remember if I didn't get the offer or just didn't take it. But he seemed like a guy who would yell and get angry

haven't seen a guy with a guitar but I did work for a guy who had a few pieces of skateboarding memorabilia scattered throughout his office.

one pic in particular stood out. it looked like it was him at some kind of house party. picture was taken as this biglaw partner bro was right in the middle of what looked like a kickflip 180 onto a 50-50 grind down a 15' rail outside the apartment complex.

guy was wearing fucking *boat shoes* in the picture
