We are truly living in the dark ages when 28 year olds are barely scraping $260k annually. Won't someone please think of the children? Don't partners realize that core CPI doesn't properly account for models and bottles?

This is trumps america, I can't be making under 300k this year. It'll look bad at our Patriot Socialism meetings.

Guys guys guys guys. The fact that it's taking other firms longer to match is because they're trying to decide how much to raise Cravbank by.

ATL has formally issued recession predictions at least fifty times since 2008, and two thirds of their articles are about the collapse of the market for legal services.
