*sigh*

So I spent all morning typing a Brief, using an existing Brief for formatting purposes.

And saved without renaming.

*headdesk*

Glad I don't have any big plans for the afternoon, just retyping the original 11 page Brief....

Brief?

I know all to well! I got a $200 bill for a transcription of a 2 minute telephone call from my Lawyer. I like the guy, but jeez!

I, too, work for lawyers, and I hate it when I do crap like that.

If it's any consolation, this morning I had to reformat a 10 page single-spaced document because they had used tabs to line up EACH freakin' line of a paragraph rather than indenting. Grr.

And don't get me started about the so-called outline numbering they were attempting to use throughout. Saying that it was f-ed up doesn't even do it justice.

I told the attorney that neither he, nor the clients who "helped" work on it, were allowed to EVER do that again. Oi.

oh man

I hate that.
Poor thing, much sympathy. Well, some, I had to wring out the chicken from the soup....
And you can't blame someone else. Okay, you can, but it isn't gonna stick.
Wait, what if we blame Tibor just 'cause?
