In-House Counsel

For the past ten months I've been working in house.  The hours can be grueling and the pay is awful, but the benefits are pretty good.

I recently submitted a bill to the client, and I thought I might share a recent day's timesheet.

0.5 hr - Feed client.

0.5 hr - Breakfast meeting.

0.25 hr - Research ducklings and ball pit regulations.
