Yay work. The partners of the firm are donating $10,000.00 to the Tsunami victims - which rocks seeing as the government is going to match donations or something. So $20,000.00. Plus for every dollar that associates, juniors and support staff donate, they're going to donate $4.00, which will also be matched by the government. Our receptionist's husband is also going to donate $15,000.00! I know some of you are gonna be all "yeah whatever, it's a tax write-off for them that's why." But that isn't how these people work. The lawyers I work with are actually really cool and decent people... shocking I know. A lot of them coach little league sports, donate tons of money to the Humane Society, and more. I would like to think that one day if I was wealthy I would be that generous. I am never quitting my job. smile

Glad to hear your firm is doing the right thing. My lawyer is actually a decent human being too. I wish I could do something more than just give money, you know? That shit could happen to us just as easily. I am glad that the international community is responding so well. ooo aaa At least monkeys are still funny.

It sounds as if your firm is very socially conscious. Great! That is alot of money whether pre- tax or after-tax.

I wondered, hey, what's up with this humongous calamity and now I believe it is bringing the best out of humanity. Sometimes, I suppose, this is what it takes.

Now, if we could end violence here in the USA. Bye
