Rookie lawyer has decided to get snippy. Whatever, it's just another snippy person. Seems I'm collecting 'em.
I'm eating and he's not shutting up about things, which ... meh.
Finally rookie is going off about how he can't figure out if (so and so) works at a certain place and etc etc etc. Bitch, bitch, bitch bitch, bitch. Really, kid? Really? About this? This is simple:
Lawyer: "Alright, give me the number after I swallow this."
Rookie: "I told you, they won't let me talk about it and they hang up."
Lawyer: "[swallows] I told you, gimme the number."
Rookie: "They aren't gonna...."
Lawyer: "Number, gimme."
Rookie: "The H.R. won't. [is cut off]"
Lawyer: "Listen very carefully, screw H.R.. H.R. don't do nothin' right. Used to be, we called 'em 'personnel,' because we wouldn't let those bastards dream of gettin' away with calling us 'resources;' they didn't do anything right then either. Never have, never will. Number. Gimme."
[Dials number] "Yes hello, would you please be so kind as to transfer me to the front receptionist and/or switchboard operator? Why yes, I'll hold, thank you so much."
[terrible hold music]
"Yes, hello is this the receptionist and switchboard operator? Wonderful, would you please transfer me to (so and so)? Thank you so much."
[terrible hold music]
(so and so): "Thank you for choosing (company), (so and so speaking)."
[hands phone to rookie] "It's for you."
