I concur.

Yesterday was nothing short of "Hell Day" at work. After a brief reprieve on Thursday yesterday it all came on full bore. Opening with a less caustic email from the individual who blasted me on Wednesday. Followed by an unpleasant encounter with a client who unleased on me the full load of his frustration with his case coupled with a temper tantrum because the Courts will not allow him to file his marital asset/debt inventory in the form HE wanted to use rather than to follow the law. He screamed at me so loudly and for so long his voice actually cracked. I sat there, expressionless (like I always do when they act like this) until he was finished and in a quiet voice told him how we were going to use the form to incorporate his information. (Obviously my boss was not in the office.) After lunch I was blasted by a former client who became agitated that he would have to pay to meet with my boss.

Then to top it all off, earlier in the day I used a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser on the walls in my office to remove marks. Lucky me it left a residue and I think may have altered the colour of the paint. Naturally my boss noticed and I told her what I had done. We are both hopeful that when it is completely dry it will not be as noticable...or I will be saddled with the cost of fixing it. Never had this problem before with one of those things so I had no reason to expect to this time. I was wrong. This is actually causing me more stress than bad client behaviours...

Until 9/12...
