Of course I knew it was a joke ... we do it all the time, too. Attorneys know the rep the have and it doesn't faze them at all. Some probably embrace it.
Lawyers are strange, some are the nicest people outside of work but become sharks the minute they enter the office.
Sorry to hear about your ex, though.
You got me there, guy. ;^)
I was all set to reply that I was single handedly responsible for the bad rap that America has given the legal profession, and now I have to agree with you.
We split up a long time ago, but thanks for the thought.
I still remember her telling me the first thing that she learned in law school was:
"If you have the law, beat on the law."
"If you have the facts, beat on the facts."
"If you have nothing, beat on the table."
When I asked her where did "truth," or "honesty" play into any of that, she just gave me a dirty look.
Yeah, we lasted long. ;^)
