Hypertensive Friday...
As I have said yesterday morning, I had to wake up early to blog ("Not once, but TWICE!") bring my Bea to school and catch an early morning hearing in Mandaluyong.
Before leaving, though, I was pleasantly surprised when I was accepted as contributing blogger at Pinoy.Tech.Blog-- The Philippines' Premier Technology Blog. But more on this later on.
Why hypertensive? That hearing was a criminal case and my client was on bail. If my client is late, the judge might issue a warrant and forfeit his P100T cash bond. He was a "night person" not used to 8:30 a.m. appointments. Worse, all efforts to contact and remind him the day before failed.
Also, I had arranged for one of his people to leave an important document in their office for me to pick up on my way to the hearing. When I got there, lo and behold, the document was not there.
So nearing the appointed time, you could imagine my tension-- no document, no client.
Fortunately things worked out. My client (and the document) eventually came and we got what we wanted for that hearing.
Then went to Galeria for a meeting that did not take place. So I just went home.
Going back to my new blogging assignment/endeavor, those headhunters and other people who have read my CV may note my career objective as: "To incorporate an interesting and challenging law practice with information technology and other fields of specialization."
This was done way back when I was in law school, more than ten years ago. My new assignment is most definitely a step in that direction. And I like to thank those guys for allowing me to take that step.
Blog on!
