Here are our top ten favorites. Sorry if yours got the shaft:

A. “The result after a firm’s managing partner told his new secretary to gather all the department chairs on the 45th floor for an emergency meeting.”

B. Stealth pile-ups.

C. When I asked HR what floor my new office would be on, they hesitated, then answered, “that depends…”

D. A very small number of chairs have been asked to leave as part of the performance review process.

E. Lawyers in the Los Angeles office riot to celebrate their win on behalf of a major client.

F. Welcome, summer class of 2010. We thought sharing this office would be a good way for you to get to know each other.

G. First they came for the chairs, and we said nothing.

H. The doc review war room has its ups and downs.

I. The Big Law equivalent of rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic.

J. “Our contract lawyers work in a communal space, but unlike in other firms, they share the opportunity to move up in the firm.”
