I heard very recently that the DA was going to require all his peeps to come back to the office on a daily basis. Apparently there was a small mutiny amongst the ADAs and he supposedly agreed to one day a week from home.
I'd say up yours and get back to work. But they have high turnover and are having trouble keeping ADAs. I hear the starting salary is $64k/year.

You should come up here. A new Assistant Minneapolis City Attorney I starts at $80,000 with no experience. He’s at 100k in a few years and there are city attorney II and III positions above that of you can get the promotion. Plus full public union benefits. And a state retirement system. Strangely enough, the positions are highly competitive. County attorneys and public defenders are 5-10 percent higher. Public defenders are on the same pay scale as the district attorneys, but we call them county attorneys. The state AG’s office is between the two. Public service law pays well in the north country. Not that it wouldn’t be nice to be paid in guns forfeited from a client, but it’s not done that way up here.
