Files I Had To Burn

It’s even worse in Mexico, they kidnap women in Uber and other apps

It's Lyft. The background check for Uber is way more intensive than Lyft. I drive for both, mostly Uber side. My background checks take weeks on Uber, and just days on Lyft. I've had multiple because I've switched areas, and about to do so again.

Due to the advice of the counsel of he, himself, and his inner thoughts, he has chosen to plea the 5th, and he can neither confirm or deny any documents or allegations levied before him.

(If you read this whole thing. Thank you and have a good day.)

One of the many reasons I don't think it should be legal to have sealed settlements or sealed evidence.

Companies would be a lot more hesitant to take advantage of their employees, customers, or tax law if they knew that WHEN not IF they get sued for it that even if they get away with it legally, the information will come out regardless.

so lawyers are morally corrupt by design. figures

lol he had to actually say it was a “hypothetical” (we can infer that it’s not a hypothetical but he’s not making a declarative statement cause he’s a good lawyer and not a dumbass) after the Walmart video where people in the comments were claiming he made definitive statements despite the fact he began the entire thing by stating “let’s imagine” which is literally the set up for a “hypothetical” scenario

He knows what's up 😭

Consult the lesser of two evils standard perhaps.

This is why I could never work in law.

You could, it’d just end your career.

But hey, there’s always podcasting!

I’d listen to your podcast, you’re actually really funny.

Hey Mike, can you do a short video about the value of plausible deniability?

Allegedly

Your social media team needs to slather more makeup on you so you look less like JD Vance. We gonna start worrying about that couch next you. 😂

Maybe you're the 1 man in a million who is an actual good guy. And maybe, women are grateful that you maybe did what you maybe did. Maybe. ❤

Hypothetically speaking, o don't think this man lets his family use uber

you're very sure of yourself aren't you

I call BS. You keep those documents in litigation hold, so if something else comes up related to the case you have the documents related to the case.

Mike, Is there any situation in which you would break confidentiality and share info with someone outside your law firm?

That might be a really hard ethical question. Maybe someone's soulution would be subpoena someone in a class action against this unknown company

Put them on the war thunder forum!

Canary, much?

Lawyers hiding crimes, no one is shocked.

Legit, good faith question: I knew a business owner in Georgia that hired people as independent contractors to save money. The state of Georgia comes after him saying if it's their only source of income they're not independent contractors, they're employees, and legally have to be treated as such (taxes, and deductions, and SSI, unemployment insurance, and all the other stuff he wasn't paying). If that's true, how does Uber get away with this crap?

Ooh anti-AI background noise, nice

Interesting that there’s a cleanroom decontamination airlock before entering the complex at this stage of backrooms exploration… earlier than any other footage we have so far of ASYNC exploring the complex. In Informational Video and all videos after, there was no airlock

Wait why did you have to deatroy them?!?? That makes zero sense. What about appeals? Separate cases involving 2* or more of the same parties?

I’d be a terrible lawyer cause I would just say ohh that reminds me of a case I took: oh what about it?: proceeds to leak more classified documents than a war thunder forum

It’s a good thing I decided against law school then, cause I’m a yapper 🫠

I find the thought that the whole firm, instead of properly shredding the documents, has a whole grill party with campfires included after a huge case is over quite hilarious.

Pretty sure it was the story that came right before that one
But nothing beats a solid example to solidify things for an audience

It seems to me like the job of the lawyer is meant for white collar criminals, and it’s only a select few that for some reason try to do good in the world.

When you have the power to do something about the bad things and then they happen, they happen because of you.

Mike plays a lot of Minecraft

dude just started rapping at the start

I wonder if that actually happened?!?

Maybe. Just maybe, if it ends up in public court, it becomes public business and we don't destroy anything and let the truth linger for anyone to see.

Like hypothetically, anonymous individuals COULD attempt to recover the files from your office (for personal or otherwise motivated reasons) and upon learning about such facts and offenses turn in this evidence to proper authorities

Kind of sad for history that those hypothetical documents get destroyed. Legal cases are great information for historians but it's really got to mess with historical analysis when a bunch of relevant documents tend to get destroyed with settled cases.

You could just sprinkle those facts into rap songs like Eminem did with Diddy.

Sounds stupid. If it's incriminating, it should be allowed

He could totally get sued over this.

Yep, i 100% believe that. I was graped by a (yellow+blue - mixed) cab driver who was not even a U.S. citizen. Went to the cops & they "investigated" a bit, but they really didn't care, just wasted tax-payer dollars, and no arrest was ever made. Im pretty sure he had drugged me, and the disgusting pig charged me for the entire time we were on the date, even tho i paid for the whole date, as well. Avoid (Yellow +Blue - Mixed) Cabs in the Twin Cities for this and many other incidences of dishonest cabbies. Ive had a total of 2 or 3 good experiences with (Yellow +Blue - Mixed) Cab drivers, and two of those were with white, male, U.S. citizen cab drivers. The vast, vast, VAST majority of my (Y+B - M) Cab experiences have been HORRIBLE. Mooslam foreigners overshooting my destinations, taking wrong turns & trying to "go around" by a mile outta my way when his wrong turn is making me late, they pull over to find the route on their ATLAS BOOK for 5 minutes & they don't think to turn off the meter, etc., etc., etc. And NOT ALL their white, male, U.S.-born drivers are good men, either. I could only get a "smoking cab" once, & the a-hole wouldn't let me have my window down so i could breathe. "THE AIR CONDITIONER IS FOR YOUR. COMFORT!" Yeah, right...its for YOUR comfort, itch-bay. And he forced me to pay for every IQ-point i lost while i was suffocating for the whole 6-mile, in-town ride. Psycho-fxcks.

I think Lawyer rules need to ne reworked... make them the police of the people and have them go after all these caes.
Would give a lot of respect to that profession too if lawyers constantly sue companies for the bullshit they see but cant talk about under these rules.

Let's say that maybe the incinerator wasn't operational that day, and let's say maybe the person who was supposed to clean up the ashes instead finds this maybe condemnatory paperwork.

Guys i think hes trying to tell us something...

At what point would you have an obligation to break an NDA and discuss something if it prevents further damages?

Could you be liable for not?

I can just imagine if lawyers never destroyed files they'd run out of file space. But, if they do and the case comes back up they can't reference what they had if they do. And files take a lot less space than they used to.

I didn’t even see this. In fact, I’m deaf and blind in one eye, and 40% blind in my other eye.

Even if he doesn't destroy the files, what is he going to do with them? He can't expose any of that information, because it will lead back to him and then he will have commited a crime, not only of publicising it, but also of not carrying out the mandatory destruction. It is frustrating.

Would a Lawyer be protected by whistleblower laws?
