WOW Firm

So, I've acquired my first expedited/rough ASCII/super super important case on Wednesday. It was a night depo, so I also got after hours fees. (In other words...a good paycheck.)

However, with that I have not been able to sleep for the last few days and have become somewhat delirious. But the job I had this morning was no hallucination.

I had asked the office to schedule me out Friday and Monday so I can get this job completed and to all the attorneys on time and looking good. But there was a scheduling mix-up and they asked if I could take a last minute depo this morning.

Okay...I jump in a suit and grab machine and out the door I go. It's in downtown so I had to park in those $500 a day garages...(okay, not that much, but whatever. lol) I get to the office building and walk in.

The floors are all white marble with a black marble trim. The security desk is even marble. They don't have lights. They have chandelliers. It's simply striking. I had to get a security escort up to the 9th floor where I get out of the elevators, walk down a short corridor to the receptionist. This firm is the ENTIRE floor!!!

She led me down the hall a little more to the conference room that had a really long cherrywood table that held 25 leather rocking chairs. At the very back of the room is a long breakfast bar, complete with muffins, smoothies, soda, water, coffee, and even CEREAL!!! Across the hall was a legal library of all hardback legal case files and literature. Rather impressive.

I'm beginning to wonder, seriously, if this is real or not. I tried a muffin and a smoothie...definitely real! This is so cool.

After all the last second delays and after getting set up, the two attorneys ended up agreeing to a settlement and they didn't need me anyway. LOL...oh well, I get the appearance fee, my muffin and my smoothie to head back home to edit more pages. I really love this job!!!
