If you have a moment, please check out my recent post on the Huffington Post entitled “Lawyers Have Worked in Amazon-Style Conditions for Decades.” In it, I discuss the recent controversy concerning the working conditions at Amazon.com, and explore the extent to which those conditions are similar to those under which many lawyers have labored all too frequently in recent memory.
