Oh and FYI: I've mentioned it before but during the last year and a half, I was doing higher-level work than "is it highlighted green"?  Still not very glamorous (nor hard, generally), but I was doing exclusively privilege work and preparing privilege logs, which at least involved some actual legal skills as well as incorporated litigation support skills.  (This is opposed to the sole requirement for doing first level doc review, namely the ability to differentiate between the colors red and green.)  It was still scut work, but not hardcore retard work.

I assume the remuneration goes up as well?  :)

WTF does this mean?

He went to join a socialist religious commune headed by Ray Lewis.

We enabled his unemployment.

Scut work is routine, assembly line work.  Full retard work is that which can be performed using 3 or 4 synapses.

He quit on us back in the spring. :( :cry:

He came back a couple weeks ago to post in the NFL thread, but that's been it.

He had seemed more miserable than usual due to some long-term unemployment, but no one can say for sure what drove him to leave.  We were actually kind of worried - we had someone who had his number give him a call just to make sure he was still okay.
Posts here are my own private opinions.  I do not speak for my employer.

Yep.  It wasn't in the least sense hard, but I had to think about what I was doing.  Most doc review is so easy that it doesn't require paying strict attention, even to do it well.

CdM's absence is a very sad one. I am sure we all hope he comes back soon.

Well he did emo up every thread the last year+.

Does anyone know his phone number? We should do a wellness check on him.

According to job title and remuneration, yes.  I didn't seek admission to the bar, but so what? 

So what?  That's precisely the distinction between being a lawyer or not.

Really?  That's not true in the US or UK.  Who acts as solicitors in Canada, if lawyers include only those called to the bar?

I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011
