The downside of this is you have to study law first.

I've studied Law for a year, it's more interesting than Computer Science!

Happened to me once as well. The bloke that runs my payroll is a right useless tw@t. Saying that so is the HR Manager and Sales Manager etc etc

Who’d have thought that a month away from my considerably large distribution we’d finally agree on something.

Fair points, given we hired you.

I didn't get my wages for 3 months and didn't notice.

Tbh I haven't needed to check

I didn't get my wages for 3 months and didn't notice. I pay someone to do that. Fortunately, they noticed before it dropped below the 75K passive income LondonPM1 has.

You got your wage this month?

I've known lawyers take their clients out for dinner. And then charge them for the meal and the time. My doctor charges on 5 minute intervals - but fortunately, it's only about £15 per 5 minutes. And the insurance pays most of it.

Yup. Found this out the hard way when filing my first patent in Munich.

I once worked with a firm which used super expensive Magic Circle type law firms. Some of the US based lawyers used to fly first class from New York to London and as well as expensing that, half the journey time counted as billable at a rate of £500-1000/hour.

Lawyers often bill in six minute segments. I once had a personal meeting with a junior-ish employment lawyer at a city law firm. After she offered to make me a tea, we had a very brief chit chat before the business discussion and I realised that had already cost me £100.

I've seen lawyers bill in 2.5 minute segments.

Compared with lawyers invoices, that is pathetic.

Or my daughter's stuffed IKEA Monkey. Constantly pissed and leading me astray.

It has been 5 years CUcKolds. Can someone please finally teach me how to embed images? Talking of which, where is Greenlake?
