Quick, how many times has he been married and did he gently caress his study partner while asking if she's an Eritrean Jew?

Guys, I think I have become the enemy. I ordered my first document review project today and I'm trying not to be annoyed that the contract attorney team can't start on Monday but has to start on Tuesday for reasons.

Is this what it feels like when you realize you have no soul?

The doc review agencies generally don't have people sitting around waiting for a phone to ring. If you got everything signed Friday evening, Tuesday start is pretty good, assuming that happened. If they are like us, they did/ are doing everything they can to get going as quickly as possible.

I'm completing my mandatory placement at this law firm, and today I had my monthly security awareness training.

The training this month was to do with Bitcoin.

Not about how your computers might be hacked to secretly mine it, but about how we should all buy some to keep on hand just in case, and criminals have a business model too, so there's a good chance you'll get your data back from them if they infect you with ransomware. :downs:
