So much for your firm being family friendly.....
I had a call from one of your Sydney colleagues this am, they are in trial with a file I worked on 2 years ago.
He was phoning to "flag" that he might need me to appear at trial, in Sydney, next week.
I laughed, and asked if he had ever had a 3 week old baby. It appeared he wasn't joking....although he has said it's "unlikely" that he would need me to, although he does want me to have a "conference with counsel" about a meeting I had 2 years ago.
Not sure if this guy is for real, but who on earth phones a woman with a tiny baby, expecting them to drop everything and fly accross the country on a week's notice? How is he so disorganised that this didn't come up before??
Anyway, it gave DH and I a laugh at the thought of me turning up, tiny child in tow, and handing said child to the judge to hold while I give evidence.....
Hope all is well with you - not been on Mnet much as just busy busy with new DS, and really enjoying it (broken nights not so much..)
