Not Bob's Career Guidance Corner
Because I think of myself as a mentor* to all of my imaginary friends here in Internetville, I offer these following tips based upon my day today. Enjoy.
[list=1][*]Stop talking about the weaknesses of your client's position when an unfamiliar person gets on the elevator in your office building. Even if your firm is the only occupier of the building (and it wasn't), some bozo solo practitioner may be wandering around the place.
[*]If you're dumb enough to discuss the weakness of your client's position, try not to mention the name of your client. (I know have a dilemma about whether I am in possession of material non-public information.)
[*]And don't laugh about their issues in public, you moron.
[*]It's also not a good idea to discuss the price of your shirts in public. I don't care how well they fit, or how the Hooters waitress liked them.
[*]Be nice to the UPS guy when he's trying to get on the elevator in your building. He's the one who will come by your secretary's desk for a last minute pickup if you have discovery responses that need to be served, and it's one minute before his truck is scheduled to leave.[/list=1]
That is all. Oh, and there is no sex in the Champagne Room.
*And, mmm, you don't have to be black to be my mentee. Because Not Bob loves the little GAs/all the GAs on the web/red and yellow, black and white/they are precious in his sight/Not Bob loves the little GAs.
