LEGAL EAGLES

This Judge in America has been charged with judicial misconduct for, among other things, being under the influence of drugs and/or alcohol while on the bench, and for causing a ruckus at something called a "Torpedo's Go Go Bar".

Is this behaviour unusual? My own experiences with persons working in the Legal Industry correspond very closely with this.

My instructing Solicitors invariably rock up to work late, smelling of booze. They pace the office hurling obscenities and liquor bottles at anyone foolhardy enough to bother them with anything resembling work, and you are more likely to find them poring over a liquor cabinet than a legal file.

In fact the only time they seem to do anything that even remotely resembles work is when they take a client out for drinks.


Considering all this, I think they came down pretty hard on that Judge. The law is an ass.


P.S. If any of the solicitors from my work read this, I'm referring to the lawyers from that other firm I work in. The one you don't know about.

BETRAYED!

Just got an email from a Facebook application I foolishly signed up to called "Circle of Trust". This application allows you to rate your friends on their trust-worthiness.

The votes are in, and apparently I'm ranked 29th most trustworthy out of all my friends.

Well, I'll see you guys later, I'm off to sue everyone I know for defamation. That'll teach em for not trusting me!
