Holy shit, I just got turned on by another attorney's voicemail to me.

It is a stupid case, a small debt type case that we are doing to try and convince the guy to give us more business. In these types of cases, the debt-collecting attorneys have huge caseloads, and thus they basically drive when settlement occurs.

A couple weeks ago, we had a court date. The attorney was a typical semi-cute female attorney. We briefly discussed settlement parameters, figured we should be able to settle, told the judge we want a month, and I took her card. I called her last week to try to hammer out the details, but had to leave a message.

She called yesterday after I had left (I leave at five, I get here early so I can have a night life). Her message sounded like a phone sex operator. When she gave me her cell number, I was expecting a 900 number. It was awesome. I am not dealing with anyone else from her firm, I want to have a phone talk with her. Clearly, that is in my client's best interests.
