My affection for Twitter, combined with my ability to be easily distracted, leads me down many an avenue of intriguing discovery, such as the lawyer in a cage spotted last week at Liverpool Street Station (pictured below right). It turns out it was the law firm Keystone Law, which was, to quote the press release, “challenging the norms for legal careers with a call to action”.
Being stuck in a cage for three days on the main concourse of the station certainly got plenty of attention, including mine, and was a novel way of making the point that a career in law doesn’t have to feel like a prison sentence. As for the call to action, applying to Keystone may be one response, but most of us may be more likely to take stock and reflect, probably only momentarily, whether we are anywhere near getting our work/life balance right.
