Well, from the attorney's perspective . . .

Nah, I can't justify it.

Okay, I'll try. Somewhere along the line this woman:

1) got the idea that this is how she has to act if she's to be taken seriously (by the partners who matter, not the support staff). There are partners, and then there are partners. I have friends who have made partner and still feel like associates, and/or

2) worked in a real shyt flows downhill environment, which she has internalized, and/or

3) suffered a serious head trauma.

There are also plenty of temp. and perm. support staff at law firms who don't take what they do seriously, laugh about the clients, etc. Perhaps she's run into so many of them that her default response is anger.

She may also be a genius at what she does. Many geniuses are real asses.
