Public Servants, like Nancy Pelosi and More (how about officers of the court) - Should They Now Receive Combat Pay?

 If Nancy Pelosi had been home, as was her husband Paul, she might have been badly injured. Or worse. 

In these crazed polarized times she and actually all public servants are vulnerable to physical attack. That's not even factoring in the vilification they endure from social media and on social networks.

It seems like an overdue idea to pay all public servants temporary combat pay. That should be in-place until there is more political, social, and economic stability.

And, come to think about it, what about practicing lawyers. After all, they are officers of the court. Legalities are littered with landmines. Some of us vividly recall how fictional lawyer Will Gardner from "The Good Wife" had been fatally gunned down in court by a deranged client.

Lawyers handling controversial litigation are certainly magnets for whatever. For example, woman of color Loretta Lynch is the lead defense in the racial bias lawsuit "Brian Flores, et al. v NFL." Here is a copy of the original complaint. So a Black lawyer is going up against a Black coach and other Black plaintiffs in the high-profile world of sports. The tension is palpable.

 A partner at law firm Paul Weiss Lynch has already provided a press conference at Paul Weiss' Manhattan headquarters about the litigation. Yes, the controversy got that far. 

On the Paul Weiss website, Lynch's profile provides no email access. The V-card can't be downloaded.  It can be argued that Lynch has already merited combat pay for keeping the wheels of justice going, despite any risks.

No surprise then, a Harris poll found that there is no great yearning to be famous. Only three out of 10 long for being universally known.

When I had been an influencer I did receive death threats. My car had been destroyed. In addition, often those on social media tarred and feathered me. Out of the limelight I have found peace of mind and even joy.

You may need to change jobs, careers, or from being a worker to an entrepreneur. You are not alone. So many are at a crossroads. Complimentary consultation for coaching, job-search materials, and interviewing. The menu of services includes Tarot readings, both spreads and one-card pulls.
