Just smile and do my little dance. I am ready to start looking, just not the greatest economy for a job change.

It's funny because all they talk about is how much they didn't like this legal assistant and that legal assistant, til I finally figured out, it's because they don't know how to manage people.

I am expected to read their thoughts and yet for the mundane, routine tasks, I am given ten minute instructions. Seems the thought process is a "little" ascue.

Dealing with any 'rookie' is tough and you have to 'bite your tongue... a lot sometimes.' The worst situation is a new or newly new... manager (or junior mgr) is that a little knowledge is dangerous when combined with a stupid ego...

My Mother just found a pile of unopened letters addressed from her to her Dad - dated within the last three months. Since my grandmother died, not only did her sister-in-law erase my grammy and my family from the house (that they've lived in for 30 YEARS), she did not deliver mail to my grandpa from his DAUGHTER!!

Upset. Rather upset...

My theory was that attorneys just aren't given any management training.

The condesending talk gets to be a bit much.

I have been here for six months, the office manager stuff I had wrapped around my little finger. It was just the legal stuff I had to work on, thing is it's the office stuff I get tips on, then the legal stuff they don't give the information so that I can perform the job. Just a bit ash-backwards... I am a trooper though.

I do miss a bigger office though, more people to communicate with. Here I have A or B. More often it is just me here so that has it's pro's and con's.

How do you find cubic yards for a bag? Any takers on this one?

Yep, more people in the office 'spreads the love around' and you can duck and hide more easily...

Hey Adam, HI... you're here a bit early today... (That reminds me.. Starduck... I know that you are still sleeping... almost 5 am this morning?)

Well, my question in order to answer your question is; Is the bag... square? :rolleyes:

I don't know. My boss called me and asked me for the formula to find out how many cubic yards are in a bag and it makes no sense. I don't even know how big of a bag. I would think like a 50 gallon bag.

Wow, now you are talking about converting gallons to square yards... ouch... sorry sharp pain in my head.

adam_89 · Mar 10, 2009, 09:02 AM

Sorry Stinger! I used to come in here around 6 in the morning. But I got my hours cut so I don't come in until 8 now. I usually get to far behind on paperwork that I don't come through sooner. I hope my boss igured it out already.

adam_89 · Mar 10, 2009, 09:05 AM

Ok, so I called my boss and he told me the fomula. You have to do it in feet. You would take length X Width X Depth divided by 27.

Its kind of messed up if you ask me.

Hey Joe, want to become a deputy? We only take the best, most honest with lots of courage and the ability to stand up to the tricks of the jailee's...

Terrific bud,

Repeat after me: "I promise to abide by all the laws and rules of the AMHD Sheriff and will diligently pursue all law and rule breakers...for sure. And I will not allow them thar villains to influence me in any way..and I will support the Sheriff at all times"

Pretty simple... huh?

Now the Chief Deputy is Batman and he can also give advice and encouragement to all law keepers...

Way to go...

Glad that we got this taken care of before the two main villains are still asleep in their cells, that of course be... Starduck and that thar Alty... hee hee.

When Batman arrives he will give you your new shinny badge... K?

Welcome aboard! Here's yer gun bro...
