The job itself isn't motivation enough?

Quick - run down to your car, drive to the store, and buy a lottery ticket.

I'll trade ya - want to do some research on the potential effects of disqualification of part-time judges in cases in which their business associates practice in the judge's court? I can't read any more advisory opinions, my brain is full.

I can't read any more advisory opinions, my brain is full. Sure!! I need you to check title on 2 closings, close out 2 estates, do a motion to subpoena duces tecum the NYSP, answer a whiny missive, draft a pretty complex will, and prepare for a surrogate court discovery hearing.

Hmm... I can do the subpoena motion and answer the whiny person. But I suck at wills and estates and title searches

Dear NYSP,
Please bring the evidence. You know the stuff I'm talking about. From under the floorboards.
My client happens to be a scumbag in this case, and we really, really need it.
Pizza for everybody if you comply.
Yours,
Swamp Don't say I never did nothin' for ya.

I wish it were that easy dealing with the state police. For some reason, they don't want to cooperate with defense attorneys.

I had a co-worker who had two piles of work on his desk. One pile was the 'Must Immediately Respond' and the other was 'Must Eventually Respond'. Each day the 'Must Eventually Respond' pile edged closer to the end of his desk and eventually into the trash can. He figured if it was really important enough the sender would send it again.

Motivate me.
If you don't get to work, you will get fired. If you get fired, you may have to go on the welfare. If Romney gets elected, you will lose your welfare. You will starve.
How's that?

Clients fire their lawyers all the time! I know, cause I fired mine. Got myself a brilliant lady, which I should have done in the first place.

She seemed extremely motivated when I needed her. I suppose that could change at any moment. It sure does for me.

Adjudicable.
Now who wants to go with me over to the law school to talk to some third-years and tell them they're definitely not doomed and they will be sure to find one of those awesome, fun, high-paying Franklin & Bash jobs with wine parties at work and Casual Fridays? Anyone? Bueller?

I'm in vacation mode (no, none planned, just dreaming again). I need to plan one. I could motivate you to help me do that, but not to work. Work sucks.
