So you know your hours will be cut even more.

If it gets the job done, that is enough." World changed for me after that. I am careful, but I won't spend hours reviewing every doc to make it perfect.

*You're suprised to receive an email five minutes later, marked "Urgent," copying the entire firm*
"Neumann,
Have reviewed the draft threatening note you turned this morning. Some initial comments:
My wife's middle name is "Jaycee," not "Kaycee". Also, we recently moved our youngest daughter to a new daycare facility, but I see that you have lasted the old one here--have you checked to confirm that all of these addresses are accurate and up-to-date? This is a fairly major issue.
Can you find a more flattering picture of my son to use (e.g. without any missing teeth in the simile)?
Thanks.
Dave

Date: April 14th, 2015 2:34 PM Author: contagious house The cab pulled up in front of his house. Another long night at the firm--hard work had its virtues. He didn't bother looking at the meter. He already knew the fare; had taken the route countless late nights and early mornings, weekdays and weekends, Christmases, Easters, Thanksgivings--it didn't matter. The half-hour journey was always an opportunity: to savor the satisfaction of another motion turned, another memo swiftly revised, another critical issue run down. He was that good, and he knew it.
He handed the driver exact fare--tips were for exceeding expectations, not doing your job--and shimmied out of the backseat. As he approached the front door, he failed to notice that none of the usual exterior lights were on; he was too wrapped up in another remembrance of the day. Chuckling to himself, he thought of the exchange with the associate that morning; of the firmwide riposte he'd shot back. HR had called almost immediately: the associate would be escorted out "within the hour"; "of course, additional measures are being considered." Profuse apologies were offered all around.
He was at the door now, still wrapped in his reverie. "Well, that's what happens," he whispered, a self-satisfied smile creeping to lips, "when you mess with the best." He shadowboxed against the night air to emphasize the point.
The physical exertion--he was panting on the porch from the jabs--recalled him to the present. Eyeing the door knob, he fumbled for his keys, found them in the pocket-watch pocket of his vest, shoved them into the lock to enter his "Suburban Castle." And because of the lack of light and because he was tired and because he'd performed this empty ritual a thousand times before, he also failed to notice the four thick red smears running down the panel of the door. This would prove to be an unfortunate oversight.
He walked through the foyer into the kitchen. Mumbling to himself "honey, I'm home"--but only ironically, since he was both witty and modern--he swung open the refrigerator door. |

"Here are the six different search terms I've used trying to locate a case and I've come up empty. [List them]. [Senior associate's name], I welcome suggestions about what else to try, because I am out of ideas."
Now you've demonstrated what you've done, and basically challenged the senior associate in front of the partner to step up and contribute substantively. And you've done it without having a tantrum. |

He was screaming at me about how he didn't care what searches I ran and that I needed to find something no matter what because the motion we were bringing HAD to be made (even though we had no fucking legal basis to bring it).
It was utterly surreal.
