I think I am going to work weekends and take two days off during the week when the clients start calling and/or emailing!
Yes, it is Monday and no surprise the angst is work. PC...is it a surprise.
I sent him two last projects several months ago BEFORE I decided that I was no longer going to send to or accept work from him anymore - part of all that reducing stress in my life goal.
I have posted that there have been significant changes in the law. Things are all fuzzy and uncertain. That is why I planted roughly 40 shrubs last year - lots of angst to unload! LOL!
PC is in denial with respect to this Supreme Ct Decision. He keeps writing arguements "as if" the law has not changed. I sent him an email instructing him to argue in accordance with the new law. As usual he argued. I sent a very short email back - "Please follow instructions."
Well - today (after putting oit ff looking at them for 2-3 weeks), I reviewed his work. And my BP started to rise. PC DID NOT do as I instructed him. He paid lip service and quoted part of the new law - and then ignored it.
So I sent an email to him asking very to the point questions and sent him the applicable law and instructions how to apply the law. I use to think he was a good attorney - but he isn't. He is fine following a template but simply lack the ability to expand and grow. And he argues about everything using 10 million sentences that go nowhere and never guide a reader towards the point! Kinda like my posts! LOL!
I feel better after posting. My shoulder/neck were tensing up as I was reading his two responses.
In a few months, he will be person-I-have-heard-of-but-no-longer-keep-in-touch-with. And life will a little less stressful.
Now I have to draft an email to a large law firm that carries puffed up bullfrog version of a big stick into fixing phenominally crappy work that they did 4-5 years w/o sending us another bill. They did the shoddy work - I am certainly not going to pay them to fix their own mistakes. Of course this goes against "billing" by the hour even if we are fixing our own screw ups culture. So I need to copy my boss and be ready to take out my big stick. My big stick is like those illegal baseball bats - hollowed out and filled with those illegal thingies. That big stick is feeling very heavy these days. I am tired...
Anyway - that is Monday. The goal - to forget about all of this at 6:30 PM this evening! And then life will be good again.
