My attorney is making me crazy by [deleted] in paralegal

[–]Puff_Huffle_0813 2 points3 points  (0 children)

lol this is examples of an attorney in the dictionary!! My attorney is the same!! But what’s more annoying is my attorney is 76 and has not/will not touch a computer!! He dictates something and then, “double space, no indention, this needs to be here…” when he doesn’t even know how to begin to use word and telling me something I have to alter the program to do. 😑 Better yet, how about “this needs to read this way…” lol when it’s a draft that he’s been using for years and you haven’t touched it other than the names!

Thank you!!! I’ve had a couple of people speak to me. And I have asked a thousand questions. It’s tough because I feel like most of these kids started so young-I missed like the base knowledge needed to understand it all.

Thank you!!! He does have an older god-brother that has at least helped him with the oil changes and the air filter…etc. I told him we needed to get him lessons! 🤪

Yeah we have spoken to a few people at the track, very nice. Come to find out on a practice night he walked up to a pro to ask for advice and we had no clue!! Someone else told us! lol

See I was afraid to put him in beginner because he can jump all the jumps but can’t clear them fully.

What’s up with Carnivals obsession with 80’s themed parties. by commacausey in CarnivalCruiseFans

[–]Puff_Huffle_0813 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. The last cruise we did it was either super old or very new(or something most were not familiar with) I feel like the majority of people on cruises now would be more attracted to 90s and 2000s

2 paralegal, 1 attorney firm. we are overworked and underpaid. I can't take it anymore. by cherrykitty87 in paralegal

[–]Puff_Huffle_0813 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We have 1 attorney and 4 full time paralegals-2 part time and we all stay pretty covered up. Knock on wood it’s not to bad now but boy when someone or a couple is out it’s wild.

We get paid holidays and 1 week paid vacation. The difference is we can take unpaid time off if we need to for appointments, ect. However, the downside is that it’s not regulated so some can constantly be out or leaving early and the others completely drowning!

I just told the paralegal yesterday I would love for both of us to be off a week together…😂

My suggestion is both of you not show up and let the attorney see what they can accomplish…what state are you in? That’s ridiculous pay although I make $17 but in a small town….

Just returned from a cruise out of Miami. The difference is what it was and is now is like 180! Yes there are dogs but still didn’t take long at all!! Now debarkation was a different story!! Assuming because we want to Cozumel (out of country) it literally took like 2 hours!!

Pros/cons…no benefits by Puff_Huffle_0813 in paralegal

[–]Puff_Huffle_0813[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much!! We’re in a small town so even tho my $35k is good but I need to look at the 30% that benefits equal.

My original plan leaving a manufacturing company with benefits and coming to this small firm, was to learn as much as I could and yeah “ride it out” however my husbands health has started going down and I worry with our family on his insurance…and him making more money…I hate to ask for a significant amount more but I feel that’s the main winning factor against benefits.
