If life gives me lemons, and I already have ceviche, I say "fuck making lemonade" and just eat the ceviche.

Can you make ceviche with lemonade?

I would tend to doubt it. In my world, that's what restaurants are for.

It is only an issue if a client is disgruntled. And, mostly, bar complaints relate to solo or small practicioners. Big firms work it out with their clients.

That said, maybe it is because I do insurance law complete with their billing guidelines and outside monitoring agencies (and the implicitly accepted ruses that get around them), billing a client my full time if I choose to work for them instead of sleeping while traveling for another client does not keep me on flights.

ETA: Slave wrote that - I, instead, would sleep on the flight for the benefit of client A, and work in the hotel room later that night rather than sleeping for the benefit of client B, so that I violated nothing. I am concientious that way.

The client's not disgruntled if the client can't find the fraud. If you apply the ".2 here, .3 there" rule you can hide 20 hours a month easily. Doesn't sound like a ton, but those little $60 increments here and there add up.

My favorite is the frivolous motion practice gig... If you need a 15-20 hours, just refuse to turn something over in discovery and come up with some semi-legitimate basis for doing so. The other side will flip out an send letters you'll have to reply to and then file a motion against you. Its best to do this with cases as far from the office as possible, to maximize travel time. Motion court's a blast. You get to sit around and read the paper, then argue, then drive back, listening to tunes and making a few phone calls. Kills a whole day and gets you out from behind the desk.

Another favorite is asking for tax returns in discovery. You can always say you need them to substantiate damages claims. Nobody turns them over without some motion practice.

POTD.

I've always made it with limes, and that's the wy I've seen every recipe do it. But I suppose lemons would work. Personally, if life hands me lemons, I push life to the ground, teat the lemons in haalf with my bare hands, and squeeze the lemon juice in Life's eye. That'll show it. Little crying bitch.

There was an article in the New York Times a few days ago about a restaurant in Mexico City that uses tangerines. I'm curious.

ETA: Present for you, Wonk. I don't trust 'em. I think the experiment needs to be repeated.

I agree wholeheartedly. Although I applaud their scientific and aesthetic discipline:

Perhaps in the long run. But I'm here to tell you two things: battles can be won with life, and Ain't no fucking way Seagram's or Tanqueray beat out Hendrick's or Sapphire.

I agree with the poster who wrote:

"Your profession is complete scum. This practice is RAMPANT among law firms throughout this country.
Scum.
Scum.
Scum."

The level of conservative hatred on this board just backs that conclusion up.

2. That is why i was so impressed when Bill Clinton made the brave decision to give up his law license.

Sapphire is overrated. But then, I like Tanqueray 10 in a martini (with a twist), so what do I know.
