WORST GIRLFRIEND
The worst girlfriend I ever had was a bankruptcy attorney. It’s hard enough dating any attorney, given they work long, long hours and are always on call if their clients need their help on anything. It’s a lot like they’re always working even when they’re not working, if you get what I mean. Even when she wasn’t in the office and wasn’t actively involved in any cases, she always, always talked about her work. We couldn’t watch a movie, eat breakfast, or just lie there on the couch next to each other without her going on and on about bankruptcy cases. At least if she were a criminal defendant, the stories might have been more interesting, but, no, she had to be a bankruptcy attorney. So I got to hear about the most boring court cases ever. None of these would ever make it onto Law and Order because they’re just so dull. Yeah, I know bankruptcy can be a horrible thing for people and that I’m being insensitive, but I’m not going bankrupt and I don’t actually know these people. And this was my girlfriend! When was she ever going to have time for me and just me? To think, it really shocked her when I broke it off.
