I worked for a lawyer today.

This is not surprising since approximately everyone seems to be a lawyer now.

I believe that lawyering is currently America's national occupation. You might think that it's eating donuts or attacking other countries, but really those are just hobbies for us. Suing people is where the real money is.

And I guess, as lawyers go, he's a pretty good lawyer. He seems to yell at people just enough and know exactly the right time to yell an obscenity.

I told him as much.

My observation: When you compliment a normal person, they think you're nice. But when you compliment a lawyer, they think you're smart.
