Working in a legal firm


Though I have worked in two legal firms before, I must admit I hated it. Mostly because I didn’t have an interest in law or anything associated with it. Secondly, I disliked the arrogance of most of the lawyers at work be it young or old but then again perhaps it was just unfortunate that I have had to deal with such lawyers.

 

Anyway I wonder how the working environment in legal firms in USA is. What would it be like to work for an Oklahoma City lawyer? Would they be nicer to work with? I guess I will never know since there is no way I would return to working in a legal firm.

 

Back to my experience, I did have a very pleasant time working directly under a lawyer who owns the legal firm. It was very funny, everyone else at the firm was afraid of him, they had warned me about what a perfectionist he is and that I should expect to be yelled at by him for the slightest mistake as was the case with his previous other staff.

 

Guess what? I broke the record at the time as the only staff who worked directly under him who never got yelled at. Instead he commended me so much I was really flattered and very surprised.

 

I think I took him by surprise one day when he told me that “Money is everything” and I answered “Money is something but not everything”. I hope he remembers that forever ?
