Is that possible? I just saw her bi-monthly paycheck on her desk, and it said like $4800 net pay. I know she sometimes works overtime, but WTF...

she is probably about 50. she is the name partner's secretary, but still, I would rather have the 30 year old college educated woman who sits next to her do my shit any day.

boomer secretaries have a very entitled attitude. i feel like you have to tip toe around them or else they will passive aggressively try to sabotage you.

cr they do. and they do because they know they have absolute protection from their partners. they have an almost wife-husband relationship with boomer partners that they have developed for decades.

I am 8 years into practicing and she needs everything explained to her like she is disabled. The myth of the secretary that knows everything, at least at my firms, is a myth. Might be different in shitlaw. Paralegals on the other hand, are a different story.

Having worked in both biglaw and shitlaw it's not different. Even seasoned secretaries don't know shit about legal practice. They know how to file stuff and how to call people, but their eyes glaze over if you say anything remotely substantive to them.

cr (at least w/r/t shitlaw). what secretaries are good for is knowing filing fees and how many copies of pleadings to send. Some may also know a few other court rules.

secretaries are not supposed to know anything substantive or expected to use their dsicretion on any client matter.

they earn $115K for being exceptionally organized to keep the crazy partners bullshit in line and for having a good knowing of all the firms resources and applications.

If you can do that, you are an excellent secretary. Who cares if you are on facebook when you aren't working.

No. If you are getting paid $115K there should be an expectation of substantive competency. The job description you provide can be performed by a pro-active 25 year old chick making $40K.
