I guess it depends on how cool the recruit was, but I'm generally the same in front of them as I would be in front of anyone and they tend to appreciate it. I probably would have said, "You know what? We've heard about litigation. Maybe we can let our interviewee talk for awhile. By the way, [interviewee] would you like dessert?

Then I would rip your co-worker a new one when it was over.

Are you mocking my lodging choices?

ARGH there are no days I can take off the rest of this week. Sucks. I could just go to the beach and snooze.

I don't think that the conversation was bad for the recruit. Actually it went pretty well and I interjected transactional stuff as appropriate. He had a bit of a litigation leaning, anyway. I just hate the litigation war stories, and I think it bothered me a bit more than usual after a summer full of hearing them.

And we did ask to make sure he didn't want coffee/dessert - she realized that faux pas right after the fact.

I can't vent here (of all places) about being stuck at lunch with a typical lawyer without being told I'm doing something wrong? Tough crowd. Tough day.

Watching the two of you dance toward each other is so moving, I could just cry.

I actually overheard a litigator say "like we were going to hold hands and sing kum-by-yah or something, after all, WE ARE litigators." Um, that wasn't funny. humor check? did you find that funny? because I didn't. I like deal attys.

That's just b/c you've never been in the trenches, risking your life, saving Jews and delivering babies in the battle that is litigation.

I should move to Hawaii. I could eat that cheap poke you can get at those roadside seafood joints all day. And I've probably got parasites in my intestines to prove it...

It was quite a bit like Poke. I'd get it again, but I'd get no aoili or mayo or whatever they want to call the white stuff that was spread on both sides of the bun.

I thought poke was like a sex thing.

I did my bit for the happiness of humanity today and warned the temp secretary not to go to law school after she finishes college. Warm fuzzies all around. She confessed that she thought corporate law would be glamorous.
