Don't call me an f'ing princess

Yeah, opposing counsel told me that I was being a princess today. Seriously. And not in a sarcastic way either.

I had just hung up and was scowling at the phone when Big Boss walked by and asked, "What's wrong?" So I told him.

He laughed, "What's wrong with being called a princess? It's better than being called an asshole, which is what most people call me! I'd love it if someone called me a princess."

I would start insisting on being called, "Your royal highness." And making opposing counsel bow to me, and wait to speak until he's been asked a direct question. How much fun would that be?

Oh shut up, Big Boss. Opposing counsel called you that because he was scared to call you a B, and if you had been a man he probably would have called you an asshole. It's like when some men think it must be flattering to get whistled and cat-called at.

Ditto PBB. What an ass. And Big Boss should get that the associate was being a real shit.

This makes me want to vomit. But in about half an hour I'm publishing the MILP list and yours is definitely the best one.

Haha--I love your idea Shelley.

Thanks for the support, ladies. Sometimes I feel like I am living in another decade. I don't know if its a regional thing, or because litigation still seems to be a male-dominated field.
