We're bringing on a new mid-level hire in my department next week. She's from industry, not a law firm. She was working for about ten years and then went to law school part-time while she was still working, and had two kids at the same time. So clearly she can multi-task. I talked to her today to get her up to speed on some matters before she starts, and she told me she cried after she accepted the job because she's worried about what it's going to do to her kids. I'm a little worried about that. Lawyers aren't supposed to cry. Crying is weakness. She also asked if she really has to use a Blackberry. I wanted to ask her if she's really serious about this whole law firm thing, but instead I bit my tongue. Maybe we'll be able to beat the doubts out of her through some hard work. We'll make a real lawyer out of her yet. I'll make her my project. She's also very pretty, but don't tell Anonymous Wife.
