I need a favor from him. All I need for him to do is call my town's probation department and tell them to reschedule my court date. That telephone conversation will probably take 2 minutes, max. He tells me, "Well I'll have to charge you for an hour's work which is $200 or you can call them yourself."
ARE YOU FUCKING JOKING ME? You want ME to pay YOU $200 for a fucking phone call? I'll do it myself, no-good-lawyer. Thanks for having my back! You really do seem to care about my case and not the money! Thank you, lawyer, for proving the stereotype wrong!
Most all legal workers are money hungry. And that's it. They have no compassion, whatsoever. But think about it, would you? If you were a High end lawyer, would you be? I might, I might not...but that's not the field I'm getting into so it doesn't matter.
No I wouldn't be a money-hungry dickhead like that! All I'm asking you to do is a simple fucking favor. It'll take 2 minutes out of your life. I already paid you $800 and you can't make a phone call for me?
I work at a law firm so I'm used to their douchebaggery, but it's still a pain in the ass.
Well that lawfirm is paying for you to sit on zel. and myspace :P. I'm just saying that if people see an opportunity to make money, most of them take as much advantage of it as they can, plain and simple. Some people are nice...but they usually end up getting fucked over anyways (at least in my case). The nicer you are to people, the more fucked you are. So, be nice and get fucked or get whatever you can from whoever and fuck them.
