  • It may not meet the dictionary definition but I’ve considered moonlighting working an extra job, without necessarily telling your boss, but outside of regular work hours.

    But that’s kinda it: the act of working at an extra job, especially without telling your main employer

    In my case, I tell my hiring manager when I sign the hiring doc: “I’ve been moonlighting for 22 years. It’s as-available contract night work, and it’s always more lucrative than OT or standby so I’ll decline where possible. You won’t notice, but I’m mentioning it up-front.”

    And then I sign. If I need to cross out some weird “we also own your free time” clause, I will do so and call it out as such.









  • Ask about retention and privacy policies: who can access them, and how can we confirm that? How often will that access policy be reviewed? Which primary and secondary person is responsible for confirming access and access lists? The risk of lawsuits could require insurance;nor will the contingency fund be paying for lawsuits brought by privacy violations that could arrive a decade after a violation? Where are the recordings stored, and for how long? Which member and secondary is responsible for reporting the status and size of held recordings, confirm they’re being rotated and deleted, and confirm their storage medium is secure and private? Will passwords be rotated, and who is responsible for doing that, and who else is responsible for checking it’s been changed in the atrata meetings? Is this an outsourcing thing, and which committee picks the company managing your backed up recordings, and is this the same group which will report on security compliance (advertised and tested randomly) where your likenesses will be stored?

    Need more? Storing someone’s likeness for any length of time requires a LOT of boxes checked, repeatedly, and this is often too much for most organizations, especially if they need to outsource the tech work. Asking periodically to have tapes remove your likeness and confirm it’s removed will swamp an FTE, but suggest everyone do this to confirm their movements and ensure accuracy.

    Recommend ALL this not be taken from contingency fund.






  • Any judge should hold them in contempt and file a disbarment petition with the bar association if this happens on their watch.

    Holding the lawyer in contempt and in jail unless and until they’re willing to name themselves openly for the record would be fine. I really like the idea of contempt meaning jail for obstructive behaviour, because it’s a “time out” for entitled adults.

    This isn’t Twitter; it’s court. Rot in a cell or state your name for the permanent record.
