Dear fancy-schmancy law firm, Part 2

September 12, 2009

I sent a note to a local law firm about why I couldn't attend a reception they were hosting the Thursday before the Labor Day weekend. (I was on the road to Paducah for a weekend-long work session on our sagging farmhouse roof.)

I didn't expect to hear anything from the law firm partner that I sent my note to, but I did. Turns out, juding from the partner's reply, they might be pretty cool and, more importantly, appreciate my farm girl roots.

Here's the law firm's reply:

***
Lara, thanks for the nice note, and I do understand your choice. We look forward to meeting you at the firm's interviews.

regards, Law Firm Partner

p.s. Here is a roof quote for your enjoyment:

But I don't begrudge anybody, because I know how hard it is to have that dream and to make it happen, whether or not it's just to put a roof over your head and food on the table.
Carol Burnett
