[quote=Anonymous]I worked for a law firm partner who would occasionally lose his mind.  he always lost his mind when it was least convenient, like the time my grandmother was dying in the hospital and he was CONVINCED I was wrong about a legal research question.

He "remembered" it differently from God knows what.  He called me away from her deathbed and screamed at me on the phone for an hour.  finally I just said that maybe he should look at the cases I was citing.  He refused to read the cases my memo discussed, which clearly were not consistent with his "memory" of what he wanted the law to be.

Dude, I can't change the law for you.  I need to get back to my dying grandma.

He would still bring up that incident years later as a time when *I* made a mistake.

I later moved in-house and have since discovered that clients love him because of his, shall I say, "overly optimistic" views of the law.  My company will probably be dealing with the fallout from some of that advice for decades.[/quote]
