How Many Hours Do You Bill For Valentine’s Day?

Eww… gross.

Don’t act like you can’t answer this question. Lawyers bill themselves down to six minute increments. You all damn straight know how many hours you’ve spent thinking, planning, and doing stuff for Valentine’s Day. If Saint Valentine was in-house counsel for Trojan, you’d be able to write out the invoice without talking to your assistant.

So how many hours did you spend trying to convince another person that you love them? How much time did you spend online at ProFlowers or Build-A-Bear or Victoria’s Secret? Or checking out the hourly rates at the hotel in Midtown that you use?

Here’s another metric: how much time are you going to spend today covering for somebody else who actually has plans this evening? If you let your newlywed colleague skip out to dinner while your lonely ass holds down the fort, that counts too!

Lawyers are not known as a romantic profession, but we know they put in the work. How many hours did you eat in the name of love?
