My egomaniac boss humiliates me, so I expose how stupid she really is.

This happened many years ago, and despite that, after all this time, it still makes me chuckle.

When I was around 19, I was working as a receptionist, front of house at a solicitor's office.

It was quite small, but very successful. Four

partners. The main one was the lady it was named after, who was kind of fierce in a Judge Judy sort of way.

So I'll call her Judy. A new solicitor we'll call Anna joined the team. We had a conveyancing, a personal

injury, financial and criminal department solicitor,

and she'd be working family law and her specialty and main focus would be helping domestic

violence victims. At this time, all of those clients were women. She was awesome at her job.

I saw so many victims of domestic mistreatment while they waited in reception,

and because they were so stressed and worried, they'd sometimes just tell me their life stories

while they waited. I did my best to comfort them. Sometimes they'd have to wait an hour or longer

if something else was happening. Anna advocated hard for these women. Restraining orders, emergency hearings, police

interviews, protection, arranging safe houses, custody of children. I really admired her and still

do now. Those women needed her. The thing about Anna was she was extremely posh, well-educated.

She spoke better than the characters on Downton Abbey, or even the Queen, but she was extremely posh, well-educated. She spoke better than the characters on Downton Abbey,

or even the Queen, but she was also very opinionated and she swore a lot. Hearing her talk about

one of the husbands of a battered woman, what an absolute twitting little C-word. In her voice

that sounds similar to the Queen made us giggle, but she reined it in and was mostly

professional in front of clients. Most of my job was filing, typing, voice dictation statements,

and logging calls from women with restraining orders who'd been contacted by their ex-partners.

So I'd get a lot of calls. Hi, Sabrina, he called me at 8.15 a.m. and 10 a.m. today.
