Today’s post comes from an outraged Dechert paralegal, who’s dishing the dirt on one of her colleagues.
“So I just got a phone call from an associate attorney - “Nancy” - asking me to meet her in the conference room. I had no idea what it was about. I was kind of nervous because we’ve had numerous lay-offs recently, and I didn’t want to hear that this was going to be my last day of work. When I got to the conference room, there were two other paralegals waiting. Two staff attorneys came into the office asking if we had received a mysterious phone call from “Nancy” as well. Then “Nancy” came in to the room and asked “Have any of you guys seen my bra?” We all stood there kind of confused because 1) we definitely weren’t expecting that question and 2) we were all wondering how she lost her bra in the first place. She didn’t even seem embarrassed by the situation. She even revealed that her and another associate (who’s actually married) had “hooked up” (is this high school or Dechert?) and she forgot to put her bra back on. I guess she was excited about it and wanted to give details to anyone that would listen. Well, I don’t know how secure my job is at the moment, and I’m definitely not going to get caught standing around in the conference room helping this lady retrace her steps to her undergarments. I just caught wind of her asking other female staff if they’ve seen her bra. Thank God, it’s Friday!”
Happy Friday, Readers!
