You're NOT an accredited legal secretary?

The word "now" and "not" aren't interchangeable, and could perhaps jeopardize your career in the future if mixed up again. Good luck.

I guess if you run a bait shop or whatever the fuck it is you do, perhaps you don't have levels of employment status. But at my firm, we have partners, and associates, and paralegals, and secretaries, and office support personnel.

I guess by your logic, I don't work for my boss because his name's not on the fucking door.

My sister hosts a party in Jersey every year for the annual "Steeple Chase (http://www.farhillsrace.org/)" where it's bloody marys at 8am. All you do is drink, eat, socialize and bet on horse races all day. It's actually pretty fun despite the fact that 90% of the crowd are high brow, stiffs.

Not all law is done in the court room. There's research, memos, briefs, notices, interviews, and several other things that get done. If you think the attorney is going to 1) take the time to do them all, or 2) learn how to use the new technology, you are sorely mistaken.

My bosses husband is a very successful attorney, and he still uses a dictaphone. ROFL He just started using email this last year.

I do transcription. He hands me the client file with a little tape attached to it. He's definitely not used to being able to register and do stuff online. He's gotten very good at attaching files to his emails, though.
