Screaming Bean
Monday, June 23, 2003

Ah Monday. Once upon a time I was a paralegal. When I was a paralegal I worked hand-in-hand with secretaries, and one in particular who was helpful and courteous. Once upon a time I was a secretary. It was a temporary summer gig, but I was courteous, helpful and well liked for my skill and proficiency. And now I'm a legal intern/law clerk. Call it egotism, call it braggadocio, but I thought this job would be a step up in the food chain. I heeded the advice to be nice and deferential to the support staff, and having been one I was. Where has this gotten me? I think the bottom fell out today when the secretary informed me via email (cc'd to my supervising attorney) that I was to do her filing for her, and to continue to do so for the rest of the summer. My attorney is out of the office currently, so no help there...and I had been helpful in the past and gotten her caught up once before. However, is this appropriate? True, I'm not exactly swamped with work right now, however I'm slightly taken aback by this.
