Welcome!

This is a humorous and sarcastic blog written by a paralegal in a mid-sized law firm in a mid-tier market. The goal is to share some of the pitfalls and foibles encountered in my own day-to-day experiences. Feel free to contact me at aparalegalslife@gmail.com with comments. Complaints, not so much :)

Anyone know how to build a Vomitorium?

Got sick and now have the stomach flu.  Have to go to work anyway, because taking sick leave on a Monday or Friday is a giant black mark on your record at this firm.  At least for today, I'm going to make them regret that policy.

You should most definitely puke in that useless secretary's desk every time you get the urge. Tell her you don't want the stench by your desk :)

ps: Feel better soon!

Coincidentally, GF and I were playing 'You Don't Know Jack' the other night (awesome and highly-underrated video-quiz-show-game) and one of the questions was "What's a vomitorium." I hope you yacked in a nice urn and sent it through intra-office mail to HR.

I just kept my puke bucket out in the hallway after it slowed down around lunchtime. Amazing how quickly everyone's door closes when you do that...
