Unintentional, I Swear

Attorneys in California have to take seminars to get credits that are called Continuing Legal Education. They have a minimum number of credits they need each year, and different numbers of credit in different categories.

Nice Partner and I keep a chart that shows what seminars he's taken, how many credits each gives, and the total number of credits he's got.

Today I updated the chart and Nice Partner and I were standing over it, looking at which credits he needs, talking about the seminar he recently took, and the one he's scheduled to attend this week. "So I'm in pretty good shape then" Nice Partner says.

"Yes," I agree "You just need some Ethics and you'll be all set." Had the setting been an 8th grade dance in 1983, the needle would have scratched the record and everyone would have stopped dancing to stare at me in shock.

I want to go to this CLE conference on small law firms (which is my environment).

I'm trying to talk the attorney's into paying for it.

What are the odds of $200,000 a yr making attorney's paying for a $238 seminiar?

Funny....its always the ethics hours that have me scrambling to find a last minute CLE in June (due in July) for my three attorneys. WTF?

Ha, oops. That's too funny. Nice Partner has a sense of humor, I hope.
