Associate days all over again...
Figured in a breakfast meeting with a member of Congress today, the topic of which I will not elaborate due to attorney-client privilege.
Anyway, he came from private law practice before he became a congressman and he still heads a big enough law office. As such, he still behaves like a managing partner.
And dealing with him today made me feel like his associate. As in, my days as a noob lawyer came flashing before my eyes.
Fortunately, I still gathered enough experience to hold my own during the discussions. By the time we had lunch, he treated me like a colleague already, because of my acquired legal expertise in my client's field.
But I had to hurry home because I had to finalize his revisions, and of course, I had to fetch Bea from school.
So now, I'm just resting. But I will blog about some brewing trouble in my practice, a potentially troublesome client in particular.
Later, my sister will treat us to a HUGE dinner because it's their 14th (?) wedding anniversary...
