My legs are killing me. Not from running but just standing up for hours and hours. Just standing there. D:
The more time I spend around people that work in the legal field the more I feel like I'm clueless. We talked about ho to look up things and everything he said didn't even get to go out there other ear I was so confused as to what he was talking about. I was told that I was doing good paralegal work to day by one of the attorneys at work. I responded with "I do more filing that anything else." He told me I had to take it in baby steps. I don't like babies that much. I don't want to take it slow either. I can't wait till I'm done with these classes. As much as I like going to school I don't like feeling clueless. I like on the job experience. It's just sad that I feel like I don't get a lot of it. Everyone is happy that I read over their work and find errors and wrong random things, but I feel like a file clerk. Today I talked with another paralegal from another firm. I was asking for them to send something over to us we should have. She asked me if I was a law clerk since that's my email. I told her no it was just my email name. So she responds with "You're an attorney." I told her, "No, I'm some sort of a paralegal assistant. I'm learning." She laughed and was over all nice. Everyone in the office said that the firm is weird and that they most likely wouldn't send that thing over but I got it pretty quickly. I find a lot of errors in it, but at this point it doesn't matter.
I feel like I haven't gone very far. Story of my life I tell you. Stephen has been acting nice to me. So I suppose I don't have to worry about my job. I'll have one. Just not a high paying one. I haven't had the time to talk with him like I wanted this week. Maybe next. I have concerns that I want answers for. Like why he was considering hiring someone for $10 an hour to answer phones while I get $7.25. :/ All because they would have legal experience. How long do I go before I'm experienced? :P I just want answers.
