The fact that I cannot be arsed to answer should instruct you. The worst are brek meetings (see me supra) and events with spouses. Particularly the latter.

Never have to do plus one events (thank god). They joys of not being a partner. Breakfast meetings suck, but are not as complete a waste of time as lunchtime meetings, where people bang on at length, just because they can and it's not cutting into their chargeable hours. fookers.

I don't understand how I, a painfully socially uncomfortable person (I mean I enjoy people but in a work context it's wretched), seem to have ended up with a much worse job than most people for this sort of thing.
And it doesn't even pay well!
In my next life I want to be an amoeba.

bailey - I thought of u last night while watching Defending the Guilty. There was a bit where they started to enumerate the accused's previous offences to the jury and I was surprised because I didn't think that was allowed (but then wondered if it was allowed because her defence agent had cross-examined the complaining witness about her own criminal record?)
anyway apolz for the digression

Are you going to produce results in a table after this, Clergs? We need the data in a clear, comprehensible and meaningful format (including KPIs).

i should also have asked people to disclose practice area so I could provide some recmomendations
"be more supes" seems … inadequate somehow
