And with a nod and a handshake it was done. I am now a lawyer in the great state of New York. To be honest, I feel no different than I did yesterday. I got all dressed up, waited for less than 5 minutes, did a very short interview about my current job and my prior experience as a game show contestant (which while on my resume, I wasn't aware I had submitted that...need to review the document stack when I return home). The interviewer told me I had glowing recommendations and had no reservations about my becoming an attorney. A paper was signed, I turned that in for a card which I signed, and poof. I did wait for the obligatory ceremony, which was being held conveniently every half-hour this morning. The whole thing was done by 9:40. So much for my plans for lunch. We went home, I changed my clothes (far too dressed up for work), grabbed my keys and went to work. All very anti-climactic if you ask me. But I got to change my .sig file at work to remove the "admission pending" bit. That made me happy.
