You sound like someone who can't put up with the heat in the kitchen!

Yes! I run sooo often!!! Hhmmm...none of my employers seemed to notice that. Nor did they address any such issues in the letters of references I had to submit for law school.

Crazy...ten years in the trenches and no one noticed! Stupid attorneys!!!! :) But then, they didn't ask you, did they Journey-On.

Silly, silly boy. If you are trying to bait me with personal attacks, you are failing. INTJ female...pisses people off, doesn't care...but they make great attorneys.

toodles...

But they don't WHINE about it like clients do. :)

You're whining about it here right now........

I AM, and I am enjoying it! But, I'm not speaking to any attorneys here about a legal issue, which is how I will spend the majority of my work days as an attorney, now am I Palmtree?

The way attorneys deflect you from speaking to them usually sounds like this..."Now we are glad to take your telephone calls and questions. However, you can call and ask to speak to me at $400.00 an hour, or you can ask to speak with my paralegal, and it will cost you only $200.00 pr hour."

...way off topic...hijacking thread. if someone wants to continue it, or wants to ask a related question, please start another thread. I will not respond to anymore on attorney/client issue on this thread.

Are you sure you're cut out to be an attorney? Just sayin'.

LMAO...so attorneys don't have personal opinions?! You're funny...though I suspect you aren't trying to be. ;)

But - the clients are an attorney's customers, right?

Oh - never mind...

Yes they are, which is why they hire paralegals to listen to the clients whine... I thought you were done...

Good luck with that. And we all know that attorneys use clarity of speech much more so than a mere client, don't we. ;-)

No...they don't. But they don't WHINE about it like clients do. :) And I will get paid a LOT more money... Life is good for JT.

Woman! JWoods doesn't NEED to do anything! Who do you think you are! ;-) Where do you think we are? In the backroom of a JC?

Man! I am a person has as much right as anyone else on this board to question why someone will not state his or her position. All this has been in response to MY simple question to him. IF he didn't want to answer, he didn't need to. ;) He could have just ignored the post.

Semantics aside...until JWoods does affirmatively state his position, I will still suspect him as being someone who, because of his ant i-Muslim feelings, would sit back and let Constitutional violations take place in America.

Far from being in the backroom of a JC, we are on a public board, just the place for stating where one stands. :)

And, in the interest of accuracy, I do not feel semantics are a problem, except for those who do not communicate clearly and explicity. When one uses confusing language, and it is pointed out, simply clarify. ...very, very simple....

But - All day long, every day, for the last decade???

Maybe the words should be selected a little more carefully - just saying...

Correct. It should say, "every WORK day, for the last decade." I averaged sixteen flippin' phone calls per day from clients and had to get my substantive work done in between those calls. The main reason I am going on to become an attorney is so that I will have LESS client contact and MORE attorney contact.

sorry...off topic...

I am really torn over this.

I think it is insensitive and stupid for a CHURCH or pastor to do this, but I support it wholeheartedly as an expression of free speech.

There is an inherent conflict between worldwide Islam, and the concept of free speech in America.

Pistoff posted this pages back, and I want to bring it BTTT. While I disagree that there is an "inherent conflict" between Islam and free speech, I think his comment on the pastor being able to exercise his free speech rights is spot on.

He has the right to burn the Quran, and the rest of America has the right to raise up against it. THAT is the lesson that will be shown to the world. While I appreciate Patreaus' (sp?) concern for his troops, I don't think we should refrain from doing things that will anger others.

Instead, the lesson is to show how we deal with multiple perspectives.

She can't help but read an informal board post like a contract. It is her legal background!

Yep...and proud of it. All day long, every day, for the last decade I have had to deal with people whining because they did not pay attention to the words and screwed up their lives.

And, JWoods, you STILL need to POSITIVELY state what you are intimating you believe...that you stand against any legislation that would require Muslims to register with the government. ;)
