So quit.

Ultimately, business is what it is all about. That and having the goods on management.

You've become a board project. We're not going anywhere until you get laid, make partner, and start drinking good scotch.

And Hank, Sebby, I don't see why your approaches are incompatible. He could do both.

"You asked the paralegal for sex?"

"I offered her money for sex."

Are you suggesting a mentor for Adder?

Oh. Adder, regardless of whose advice you take, you should first ask your doctor if you are healthy enough for sexual activity.

This has to be one of the most pitiful posts ever.

Advice: stop only drinking the good scotch when a client is buying; instead, take the clients you deal with out and BUY THEM 30 year old scotch. You don't build a practice by freeloading on your clients. Spend the next few months returning every invitation you've accepted without countering; take 'em to ball games, shows, bars, restaurants, whatever. After doing this for a few months, quit your job and go somewhere else, where they can think of you as partner material from day one. And tell the new place that you're only going there to build a business, and that's the opportunity you need to stay and be happy.

And damnit, just ask the paralegal out sometime. It doesn't have to be anything fancy, just ask her for a simple drink after work some day.

So, Adder, we're looking for progress during the week. What's on the agenda - wooing clients or talking to the cute paralegal?

You should devote less time and energy to responding to really stupid questions, like the one I asked, and devote that time and energy to talking up the cute paralegal.

Or to figuring what leads to partnership in your firm, whichever.

If any of the New Yorkers happen to see one of the copies of the New York Post that was hijacked by the Yes Men today, could you buy me a copy?

The Yes Men are coming to one of the arts organizations that I'm on the board of later on this season, and I'd love to surprise the directors with a copy of the paper.

I don't do it with wealthy friends. I can't imagine doing it with an SO unless our finances were already pretty much merged.

Hell yeah. I would approach them about the fact that I ain't never workin' again and need funding to reach my new goal of being a professional golfer.
