Yep, that's the one, Dana.

Gnerg. I just had my favorite pain in the ass throw attitude at me. Used to it from him, but snippy snippy. If I tell you that your problem is systemic, not specific to the interface and you need to talk to IT, just do it. I am not your personal assistant. Your problem is not my fault and what's more? I can't fix your problem.
How is it a 40+ year old fairly well known professional can achieve such when they have the personality of a 3 year old in need of a nap? Sheesh.

Thanks everyone for the jobma. Since this was my first interview from the interviewee side, pretty much ever, I'm not really sure how to guage it. I got the interview in response to a resume I uploaded to a firm website, and not for any specific job opening although I indicated a strong preference for health care law.
On the plus side he asked me to register for the FL bar, ASAP, and mentioned "short list" and "in-person interview." On the minus side, I have no idea if that's how he talks to all the candidates or what.
All in all, it could have gone a lot worse.

That sounds good to me, Wolfram. When it comes to job hunts, "short list" is one of my favorite phrases. I hope it comes through for you, if you want it.

That sounds very positive, Wolfram. Way to go.

So follow up hivemind question: anyone know anything about the FL bar?

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Which one? THere are several. Specially in South Beach.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Wolfram, I know very, very vaguely from a friend who took the FL bar (it was his 4th exam in search of his 4th membership -- he was crazy that way). IIRC from his comments, FL takes the fitness part very, very seriously -- they ask for lots of references, things like that.
I also have vague memories that about 10 years ago, someone sued the FL bar over membership. Seems the bar rejected the plaintiff for membership because the plaintiff had had a mental health problem, received treatment, something along that line in the past.
Sorry, it's all very fuzzy, but it may help.

Thanks Fred. I just saw on the website that the application fee is $1300. Non-refundable. That's a lot of money to shell out after only one seemingly successful phone interview. Shit.
