Greatly reduce the workload and simply the review process. Make the review more akin to the European system whereby the accept/deny determination is less stringent and less involved. The European patentability reviews I saw while in the office required less specificity in that the examiner didn't have to supply a point by point review or justification but could generally discuss an application, point out applicable art, and then require the applicant to defend it. Or, we could got to a registration system and have the actual testing of the patent be carried out when an issue arises between parties. But this would present negative issues regarding business planning in that significant investment would be risky with an undefended patent.
4.7I've worked as an engineer and as an attorney. By far, my current position is the best job that I have ever had. The compensation and benefits are great for the amount of time you have to work. It is wonderful having PTO that you can take without feeling any guilt. The level of autonomy I have with this job is also wonderful. I rarely have to rely on anybody else to meet my production requirements. The work is challenging, in a positive way, and the work is diverse enough to keep it interesting. I would strongly recommend this job to anybody that enjoys a solid work-life balance.
3.1The USPTO is an institution with a clear distribution of power (Apartheid-like): I do not mention whites in the distribution below, because white folks rule this place, and nobody mess with whites. By nobody I mean: LGBT, blacks, Asians, and Hispanics with white complex.
1- LGBT community are the most powerful (besides white folks). They can harass with impunity heterosexual new employees, and because you are under probation, you are out, at the 8th month in you dare to complain. Forget the EEO office, they do not work for you.
2- Blacks, are very empowered through the EEO office and its deputy known as Bismark. He just care about his people and is very aggressive if your mess with black folks. In level below, Bismark take care of the LGBT community and Asian- Americans. Hispanics have not rights here, unless you are White-Hispanic who speak perfect English. If you are not, Bismark (and the EEO office in general) does not give a f**k for you, even if you are being harassed by LGBT folks, or mistreated by your supervisor, called in this organization SPEs.
3. Asian Americans are empowered and are the most abusive Asian Americans that you can encounter in a civilian organization. By abusive I mean, people who does not have absolutely any respect for employees who do not fall in the classification above in 1 and 2 (Usually Hispanics who do not speak perfect English). Conversely, they worship you as a demi-god if you are white.
Thanks God I do not work in this racist place any longer.
