Christmas Grinching- February 20, 2004 What follows is a series of e-mail communications between a Skadden associate and support staff regarding reimbursement for meals on Christmas Day. For big firm associates, it really doesn't get too much worse than this. These emails are currently being forwarded around -- I can't vouch for their accuracy, but they did contain a whole lot of confidentiality notices that...http://www.whostolethetarts.com/archives/000405.html Just Drink It- February 19, 2004 Lately I've been a bit uninspired on the law school front. (That was an example of my deadpan delivery.) It's been terribly boring darlings, and I do believe I've had it with the New England winters. Fortunately I have been keeping myself and a few others amused at drink me, although I don't believe it was nearly as much fun...http://www.whostolethetarts.com/archives/000404.html Mr. Monk Goes to Law School- February 9, 2004 Every class has the law student that just doesn't get it. For whatever reason, such students cannot grasp basic legal concepts (or jargon). This week's episode of Monk features Rachel Dratch (of Saturday Night Live) in a fantastic performance as one of these bumbling law students. The episode isn't a great one, but if you've got the time, it's good...http://www.whostolethetarts.com/archives/000403.html PITA- February 5, 2004 Dear PITAs: If you are still in law school, there is absolutely no reason to add a legal disclaimer (as commonly found at the bottom of actual lawyers' e-mails) to the bottom of yours. It makes you appear to be the smarmy uptight pain-in-the-you-know-what that you probably are. And if there happens to be an actual reason (though I really...http://www.whostolethetarts.com/archives/000401.html Tedium- February 5, 2004 Have you ever been in class and thought to yourself, "Damn! These people are such tools!"...http://www.whostolethetarts.com/archives/000400.html Hey Ladies!- February 2, 2004 Please do us all a favor and wear your cleavage as an accessory, and not as an entire outfit. This generalized advice extends to sub-miniskirts and fishnets in freezing temperatures, as well as other clothing of a patently ridiculous and inappropriate nature. Certainly you might turn some heads, but clearly you lack the understanding that you have become a laughingstock....http://www.whostolethetarts.com/archives/000399.html Yay Pats!- February 2, 2004 Thanks to the Patriots, I have a completely valid reason to go party in the middle of the week (not to mention the weekend of fun and festivities that led up to the entire event itself)! Yay Pats! On a less ecstatic note, the commercials were hideous. I am completely baffled at Bud's choice to pursue chimpanzees when they could...http://www.whostolethetarts.com/archives/000398.html |
