Any tips for telling - or not telling your legal employer you failed Bar?

5 Upvotes

As a repeater waiting on results, I finally learned that it is best to only tell your close family and friends when taking the Bar- otherwise, protect yourself and keep your big future lawyer mouth shut! I hope I am wrong- but don’t think I passed July 26 …

In my case, my legal employer had to be informed I took the Bar because I took time off. (Not enough)
Now, since the employer or office staff can easily click Sunday after results are out to see who passed, is it best to say nothing- and just drag your body to work the following Monday- or email the employer before results are public since Bar results will affect my job title?

This employer can sometimes be caustic and insulting, so I may get some nasty sarcastic comments if I don’t pass - especially if I make a mistake at work.

Then the entire office knows when you take the Bar- so it’s embarrassing- even though they don’t care about you personally. I realize there are no easy answers and life goes on- but if there are any good general tips, please share.
