you know what? I'm officially ****ing annoyed.
after 3 days of putting together exhibits to a faciliation brief, going through numerous versions and making changes reflected therein, my boss has the nerve to call me in his office to give me the exhibits back (I had given them to him to review before finalizing.) and proceed to point out any and every possible thing wrong. ok, fine, I can handle that. I like to know when I'm doing wrong, but here's what pissed me off. back story: in-house counsel had suggested some revisions to the facilitation brief, which included some deposition pages. once I read that, I went ahead and pulled the pages exactly as he stated. ok?. so...
the last thing he says is "and I want to give you a little tip...and I don't expect you to read my mind, but I do expect you to read. if you had read the entire page, you'd have noticed that the page ends with a question. the answer is very important and we should include that page. I don't expect you to know what a lawyer knows or make decisions that only a lawyer can, but always include the next page if the first page ends in a question so that we can see the answer."
w.t.f. first off, I actually did do that on a couple of the other pages in-house counsel wanted to include because the quote from the deposition was near the bottom of the page. I didn't do it here because the point they were using was the first 2 lines of the ****ing page and the bottom had nothing to do with it. now, I see his point, don't get me wrong, but jesus. and the smirk on his face. it was like, ha ha, you ****ed up. and the whole thing about not making decisions a lawyer should make? sit and spin you bastard. what a ****ty ass comment to make. I swear, I hate lawyers. I do. I have never seen a career turn people into such assholes and to treat those they work with with such little respect. may be similar to doctors and nurses. the only difference is anyone can be a lawyer honey. don't get it twisted. for every crack whore, there's two lawyers. and half the time, the crack whores are lawyers. believe me, I know.
in the words of Barbra...
gotta move
gotta get out
gotta leave this place
gotta find some place
some big new place
some brand new place
