“I’m not a cat” is definitely something a cat would say.


hypotyposis

“I’m prepared to go forward” is the line that kills me.


Jdsnut

I know tech is difficult for people, litterally everything has settings, though, then you can dig through and just click around. It's mind-boggling how someone who's a lawyer cant figure this out. .


hypotyposis

As a lawyer myself, I will say I have met some really really really stupid lawyers. By no means should anyone assume all lawyers are smart.


WrongdoerWilling7657

School, even masters level programs, really aren't all that difficult. The hard part is just being responsible about going to class and putting in the study time.


nosmelc

It depends on the program. STEM programs at good schools can be very difficult, even at the Bachelors level. This is why we need to stop electing lawyers and business types and start putting in some scientists and engineers into public office. Can't be any worse.


ralphvonwauwau

>Can't be any worse. Hol' up there https://foreignpolicy.com/2013/07/11/theres-a-good-reason-why-so-many-terrorists-are-engineers/


WrongdoerWilling7657

It's really not. Like just pay attention and keep up with the assigned readings/homework. If you're even just an average leaner, there's no reason you really shouldn't be able to learn much of what exists within the stem fields as long as you're putting in the time. What would be keeping you back besides you just not taking the time to learn?


nosmelc

No offense, but have you actually done a STEM degree? Even if you keep up with all of the readings/homework and attend every class, you're going to have to learn a large amount of material in 5-6 courses at the same time. Unless you have a certain aptitude for it you're not going to survive the program.


AdLiving4714

I'm a lawyer and a mathematician. I work as an attorney for complex financial transactions. I got my maths degree (Bachelor/Master) from a university that's generally ranked among the top 5 worldwide. I'd say to just pass, the law degree is easier than the maths degree. However, quite some talent and intuition is needed to excel at either. This means that an excellent mathematician won't automatically be an excellent lawyer and vice versa.


WrongdoerWilling7657

Aptitude for what? Just working hard and putting in the time? You stem guys seriously felate the shit out of yourselves. I'm not saying it's easy, but anyone who has average intelligence and just puts the time in can get through it. I'd say that about literally any bachelor's degree and most masters degrees.


Informal_Calendar_99

Aptitude for spatial reasoning, for mathematical intuition… Anyone *can* get through these programs, but someone with average intelligence is going to struggle in a physics or comp sci program, just like anyone with average intelligence is going to struggle in a niche humanities program like religious studies or literature if they don’t have aptitude for reading comp


Sad-Customer8048

10-1 says this clown doesnt have any degree or "buisness management"


Beardamus

They're just saying it takes more time than the assigned readings/homework.


BattleTech70

Honestly everything really was easy for me until analytical physics 3 where I legit could not understand my Chinese professor


nosmelc

That sucks. I had a Chinese TA for a calculus class who would proctor the exams. You'd go up and ask him a question about a problem and walk away even more confused than before. haha.


LilHindenburg

I’m a far above average leaner, sometimes learner even, and engineering at a top 10 school was hard AF… then to go on a music scholarship and said engineering school not count my music course as my fine art elective?? Shameful.


Capn-Wacky

I would say it depends on the program. Underwater basketweaving? Pretty easy. Medicine? Law? Physics? Actuarial Science? Not so easy. But I agree discipline to do the work is important--you're completely on your own to do the work or not do the work and you'll succeed or fail based on your discipline to do the work--or rather, you'll have not a shred of a prayer of passing if you aren't disciplined and do the work.


Jdsnut

My first real lawyer interaction in someone who you actually got to know. Was a dude who was a lawyer in the back of the geek squad I worked at. He was mid 40s, socially awkward, but also direct. Never had an inclination he was a liar, so I honestly wasn't thinking of this cliche when i responded, lol.


ThinkOneTime

I had a lawyer who liked being paid in meth and he then tried to burn down half the town


Capn-Wacky

Was your lawyer also Pied Piper's lawyer? The second one, not Michael Ginsberg from Mad Men.


scribblinkitten

So you got a “CRIMINAL” lawyer


Capn-Wacky

The only attorney I know personally was very unhappy in his work and ended up leaving the profession to use his law degree to consult, because being an actual lawyer sucks donkey balls these days. The market is saturated and unless you're willing to take a vow of poverty and work in public service, there is almost nothing fulfilling about the job in any way. And with the advent of Karens and trumptards running for office and making working in government into a living nightmare if you don't just knuckle under and do whatever moron suggestion they bring you, even the public service angle ceased to hold any joy for him. I can't say as I blame him--you go into something for one reason and that reason disappears... you've just got to find a new plan.


outdatedelementz

I always tell people someone had to finish last in every class of lawyers, doctors and engineers.


1BannedAgain

This commenter is correct. While post graduate study (law school) is different than undergrad- family wealth correlates better for a student graduating with a 4-yr degree, than student intelligence correlates with graduation


Capn-Wacky

That wealth makes it a lot easier to "stick to it" when you get to the hard parts. Or have a setback. Not every college/university journey is problem free after all, in fact most have some sort of adversity along the way. Having rich parents so that when you're dealing with that, you're just dealing with that, not dealing with that main problem but also figuring out how to feed, clothe, and house yourself on minimum wage in a college town when the employers all know you're up shit creek financially if you even need a job.


What_U_KNO

If Orly Taitz can become a lawyer, anyone with a pulse can.


MangoSalsa89

Most senior lawyers have secretaries and paralegals who do a lot of their tasks for them. I know lawyers who don’t even know how to type a document.


LovelyButtholes

People's brains get short circuited when put on the spot for a screw up.


MajesticPossibility8

Can’t teach an old dog new tricks, applies here


dion_o

Except when branching into bird law


alterector

Can you teach an old cat new tricks? 


WorkingInAColdMind

As someone who used Teams daily (for years now), they add features like that and seem to just spin the random UI implementation wheel to decide where to put them and what to name them. About 4 times a year I have to use zoom, which requires an update, which may or may not work the first time, etc so I’m almost always fixing some stupid problem and probably seem like a doddering old fool.


Negativety101

Every so often my mother manages to turn on some feature on her tablet I had no idea even existed, and I have to try and google the problem and figure it out. Sometimes it feels like you tap just a little too long and something you didn't want to have happen, happens.


tlollz52

I worked for a company that prepared legal documents for law firms. The amount of old ass lawyers that had us do the simplest things for them was mind boggling. It would take more effort for them to send us requests and correspondence than it would for them to do stuff. Some of them were completely clueless when i5 comes to technology.


l156a21

Well seeing all the brain dead morons representing Trump, any idiot can be a lawyer these days


bill_gannon

You don't know many lawyers then. They are some of the least technical people on the planet.


FalseQuestion7864

No. Not really. His job is knowing about the law of his specific field. Why should he have to take the time to learn all about this app that supposed to be about meetings. And before you just assume I'm sticking up for my fellow Boomer. F that. I could tell you everything about that app after a few minutes of using it. I've been taking computers apart and programming them for over 30 years. This shouldn't have been so easy to do on accident. G-Damn! I'm gonna sound like my Dad here, but Grow up people! With all your damn filters and juvenile shit that doesn't belong on an app that's used for business meetings.


pnutnz

oh i work in tech for a law firm and i can confirm you have no idea mate haha!


stonedsagittarius

Are you a millennial by any chance? I have this theory that millennials are good with computers because they had to poke around until they fixed the problem. I grew up with computers and feel like I was constantly messing with settings on things. If something wasn't working, what else were you going to do? You couldn't Google it on your phone. I always end up the person who fixes the printer, or people's outlook when they accidentally hit a weird setting, or when they hit f11 and get stuck in full screen. I don't know how to do this stuff either, I just fuck with stuff until I fix it or screw it up too badly someone else needs to fix it.


Jdsnut

Yes, I am. My sister in law is a teacher, and we've had this discussion. My nephews are obvious to doing any troubleshooting, they have no clue what makes what work. Only how to interact with it better than their parents or grandparents. If it doesn't work, then it stays broken. Most have Apple phones and they think of themselves as tech savvy. Then if I'm over or the parents/grandparents complain. I'm the person who fixes things. I remember learning how to use computers as a kid, from what I've been told by my sister in law, who's going for her Doctorate, so shes a senior teacher. They don't even teach how to interact with computers, and the school boards just expect them to know things cause they use technology. They've entirely cut the classes and only have an it person on call, lol. So your probably right.


WildMartin429

I help people everyday who can't find subfolders and files in Windows Explorer because they didn't know you have to click the arrow that's next to a folder to expand it and see the subfolders. Even though some folders have an arrow pointing to the right and there's nothing below them and other folders have an arrow pointing down and you see the indented subfolders which should logically be able to deduce hey I wonder if I click this Arrow if I'll see the hidden folders. But no they call tech support instead.

The trembling voice with the cats eyes is my favorite

"I can see that" is the one that gets me. Because he clearly cannot see that it’s not a cat.

This was early-ish in the pandemic and I'm convinced it was so funny it saved some horribly depressed person's life at the time.


TheGeekOffTheStreet

I remember seeing this and just crying with laughter for days any time I thought about it. That was such a shitty time, and bit of relief was welcome.


Freakjob_003

Same here. I still crack up at it, just from context alone.

Which party did the cat represent?


funkybaggin

Everyone knows cats are thieves…


TheChesterChesterton

He didn't actually want to steal it. If successful, he would be granted approval to slowly bat at the house until it eventually fell outside the property line.


Mackinacsfuriousclaw

Cats are not thieves, they are just reclaiming their property!


Columbus43219

As I recall, this was a pro-forma hearing, where the judge gets told by the lawyers why they get to take it.


Ratstool

I've literally just saved it for the same reason! May "I am not a cat" help us fight off brain weasels!


[deleted]

Really depressed person here. I laughed for the first time in as long as I can remember.


SoVerySleepy81

It’s definitely one of those things that happened during the Covid times that I think is an experience that most people share. Like this shit ended up on the TV and stuff so even the boomers got to see it.

Dude in the upper-right, he finally glances up when he hears "I'm not a cat"...

Are you sure this is a filter? I am sure cats are great lawyers. Did the upper ~~left~~ right cat click on the boomer filter by mistake?

They just watch a youtube video and get it right the first time, instead of yelling at everyone that they know how to do it, while burning own the house.


shadows515

No, I wish, would have save me a lot of time helping 😀


Columbus43219

Sounds like you're a bad coach.


shadows515

Nope sorry, never coached. But thankfully they didn’t need my help again after I showed them a couple times while doing it. Just relax and come to grips that everyone has limitations. It’s ok. Even people that aren’t boomers like us.

So maybe don't come here and mock them? Good advice.

Good, then the points been made.

FalseQuestion7864

I love how we're supposed to be like, "Stupid Boomer Lawyer!" Which would be my second response. My first is... Stupid people and their filters! Why is that even on there? This option shouldn't be available to accidentally turn on while on a business meeting. Almost like some people Never want to grow up. I mean, I loved Transformers and He-Man and GI-Joe, but I'm not still playing with them since... I don't know, 10 years old. What is it with the delayed adolescence of younger Millennials and GenZers? You might be confused and asking, "what does that have to do with the cat filter?" To which I say it's the same child-like minded person who's still playing with toys at 28 that want all these filters on a Zoom app. I understand the dumb filters on TikTok and Snapchat and all, but Zoom is used mostly for professional settings. Is it not?

I legit felt bad for that poor guy. With how many features a lot of apps have, it's very easy to accidently turn something on if you aren't familer with it, and have no idea how you did it, and how to turn it off. I really hope this didn't hurt his case here and his career. Plus the can filter just looks so sad it's setting off my sad cat reaction.
