Ha...Even another way to screw over people.

I wonder if the "snitch line" call center is in India. Perhaps we can rat out our co-workers while they continue to send our jobs abroad.

Oh yes, doc review is still big business, it's just being peformed illegally offshore at cut rate prices.

You are all morons who OBVIOUSLY never had real jobs. EVERY MAJOR COMPANY HAS AN INTEGRITY LINE!!

Good job busting yourselves for not knowing what working (perm, that is) environments have for their employees.

Losers.

Way to go Hudson! Celebrate Tiananmen Square day by snitching out your neighbor.

Who else besides 10:15 wants to step up and show everyone that they've never seen the inside of a real working environment????

Snitches get stitches. I'll kill a snitch.

Oh, and the asshole who said every job has integrity lines, that's complete BS.

That's BS?? Really? You know what an idiot you sound like to the rest of us who have/had perm jobs?

Your sweatshop basements don't count as real jobs.

The factory worker at GM even knows better.

wow, it will be harder to cheat, now you'll have to get high only three times a day

McDermott Will & Emery, which last week cut pay for its summer associates, announced today it has laid off 25 associates and 47 staff.

Some first year associates were cut, but are being offered a public service fellowship. The amount of the stipend was not disclosed.

In March the firm froze associate salaries; in February, McDermott laid off 60 associates and 89 staff.

Has anyone ever not been punished for pointing out a problem on a job?

This is the right policy to have an integrity line. Unless Hudson is just doing this "for show".

The problem is all the cases have supervisors and/or case managers. If you complain, these people will feel like their usually biased and perfunctory management is being questioned.

Tell me these case managers won't find out who the rat is.

if one was "to rat" on a document review project.. there would be no reviewers left... it is the nature of the business for people to waste time..

still a honor code related to proper time sheet management should be expected. straight out fraud should not be supported.

I called in and some guy in answered, he had a bit if an accent and there was commotion in the background, so I asked where he was and to little suprise he said Nigeria.

Is this line retroactive?

if you worked hard you too would be able to bill 39 hours per day, run a side business at your desk, be on the cell so much it looks you are running a call center

this is gay gay gay gay gay gay.

Is there a special extension to report a Hudson recruiter?

Allen Cohen of Hudson is by far the sleaziest person on this earth. He is the reason why antisemitism exists

I met ALLAN COHEN once. He just reeks of sleaze. You just take one look at that guy and you just want to take a shower. How is it that there are people like him still on this earth?

I got that boom boom boom

Just because you're doing document review doesn't mean you're not a lawyer.

If you're a lawyer, you have professional ethics (or should have them, or even if you don't have them, are bound by them). That means there are situations where the interests of the client or duty to the profession or employer means you report someone. If you can't do that, quit the profession.

If you report someone to an employer for taking a 5-minute phone call, you're an a***hole. At the other extreme, if you report someone for fraudulently billing for 8 hours a day spent watching videos online while clicking through documents without even looking at them, and that person refuses to change his behaviour even when given a warning by you, then you are acting to protect the client and the profession when you report them.

10:17 is queer. if you are areview, you are a a loser either because you never could be hired as a real lawer, or because you accidently were hired, and quickly fired becasue you are only equiped to click and flip. Accept the truth, jerk. And, quit the snitching @ss.

I've actually witnessed situations where fradulant billing was rewarded. On a DeNovo project, a woman named Katrina (and I hope the nasty puerto rican ho is reading this) would sign in early in the morning, then leave for the day. She'd return around 8:00pm to sign out. I saw her (and some other clown) do this for over a week before the project ended. DeNovo knew about it and instead of firing her, they hired her for their next project.

"You are all morons who OBVIOUSLY never had real jobs."

I've worked at places w/o snitch lines (mid-size firms). I've also noticed that attorneys that snitch on other attorneys in the real world quickly find themselves jobless. Snitching is what the staff in the office (non-college educated secrataries) do, not professionals.

But then again, since a lot of the permatemps never had a regular job or managed to keep one for a year, they wouldn't have noticed this. Just like the complaints about the salaries. If you stay at a place for more than a year, they figure out a way to make you happy because if they don't someone else will.

I have worked with many De Novo temps who are the laziest, sleaziest bunch of temps I ever saw. No other agency would hire these people.

Forget the poor temps - how can I report Hudson's own unprofessionalism? They put me on an assignment once and paid me MONTHS later.
Then they paid me less per hour than what I had been initially told.
It was a joke. I wrote them a scrathing letter -- and never heard from them again.
So that's how they are -- you call them out on their own bullshit and they don't want to hear it.

Yeah, forget their Integrity Line. I'll call when they develop their own integrity -- I'm not going to snitch out a few temps who are already so exploited by thee assholes.

denovo is a shit box, they staff the worst and are all about the fraud.

I hope denovo gets closed

I have actually had positive experiences with Hudson so far. I hope my luck continues. They don't seem to have a lot of projects now. Are they staffing anything? DeNovo is far...far worse any day.

Allan Cohen isn't a rat. He is a businessman, if he needs you, he calls. They are not the most personable people but as long as I get paid it doesn't matter.

Yeah, as long as you get paid...I only had one experience with them and I didn't get paid.
I have heard they are usually good about that ... so I don't know why this happened to me. But it was enough...for me to move onto another agency for whom I have billed thousands of hours...

10:17 again.

Not sure why you're guessing my sexual orientation, 10:39, some weird wish fulfillment on your part? I don't want to know.

I'm a "lawyer" not a "lawer" (not to mention "areview", "becasue", "equiped", etc. - at least "becasue" may be a litigator's Freudian slip).

See, it's attention to details like that that help one do a good job...not that you're likely to ever do a good job, let alone have one.

Only once have I reported another lawyer and that was in a situation where we were directly employed by the law firm (not an agency) as lawyers, I'd already warned the person several times to stop, but his behaviour including watching pornography while billing his time and sexual harassment of others did not change.

If that makes me a rat, so be it - one of the less offensive things for a lawyer to be called!

When I worked for De Novo I also saw a Hatian woman come in the morning, turn on her computer, leave for the day, come back in the evening and mass code documents, turn off the computer and leave. She rigged the computer so that it didn't turn off automatically. De Novo knew, the ssociates were there managing. I saw her again at another assignment. She also worked for Update where she slept all day. Update knew. I have seen a guy watching porn all day at Update and Update knew. A paralegal was there managing and doing the same thing.

Cohen is a loser. Since he took the reigns at Hudson its been all downhill for them. Dont be surprised if you hear about a fraudulent scandal at Hudson. In fact, someone should be checking their books.

"Allan Cohen isn't a rat. He is a businessman, if he needs you, he calls."

He's manipulated you into working a job with long hours that provides little or no experience (coding isn't exactly like learning how to do trial add).

As for the agencies not paying, please. They're not stupid and are afraid of a nasty law suit. Your a lawyer, remember. You can sue people when they do stupid things like not pay you.

11:56

Why don't you mind your own buisness. If the guy wasn't bothering you or acting like he was going to start shooting people, keep your mouth shut.

I think we all know agencies are more understanding when some minority pulls some shit either 'cause they too are a minority recruiter and have their own little racial posse or they are afraid they will be called rascist.
I am a minority too - but the hard-working kind with a family to support and these lazy bitches are giving me a bad name.

12:09 - he was bothering me, and others.

More to the point, one is obliged to do certain things by virtue of being a lawyer. One of those things being to comply with professional ethics. I obtained confidential legal ethics advice which supported my interpretation that under the circumstances and the applicable rules (I'm not giving the whole situation or the jurisdiction here) my duty to the client (remember, I was a lawyer employee of the law firm i.e. an "associate" with a fiduciary duty to the client) I was obliged to do something to stop his behaviour. Since warning him didn't help, I had to report him to the employer.

So given a choice between (1) violating professional ethics to protect someone I disliked who was doing something fraudulently wrong and sexually harassing people despite being warned not to; or (2) complying with professional ethics to report someone doing something wrong who I also disliked; I chose (2) as a last resort, because other measures (warnings) had failed.

Again, fiduciary duty to the client is more important than not "snitching" on fraudulent unethical lawyers. If you don't understand that, you'd better take some ethics CLE.

Incidentally, if an agency or law firm is deliberately allowing fraudulent billing of the client, quaere whether one's duty to the client (even if one is employed by the agency) requires one to report the matter to the client, if the firm refuses to take steps, does whistleblower protection apply or not, etc.... the ABA Journal online had an item a few months ago about a Nevada (?) associate who was obligated to report the head of the firm for financial improprieties. Yes, many others didn't like it, it hurt his career prospects, but he was ethically obliged to do so.

I agree. Just the other day I walked into register with an agency. I have an excellent resume, solid top tier degrees and am hard-working and professional. At their office was some ghetto ho also registering. She was skanky, smelly, matted hair, rude and obnoxious. Her resume was quite pathetic and her clothes were worse.
When the recruiter came out I knew instantly she was going to favor the ghetto ho because she too looked like one. And that's exactly what happened. Although the ghetto ho walked up to the recruiter in an appaling gangbustin' style with a 'wassup' and acted more as though she was lounging in the hood the recruiter was very happy and animatedly promised to get her long-term assignments. Either she was scared or just felt more at ease with her. She wasn't that nice to me - although I would have been a better worker.
I kept in touch with that ghetto ho and sure enough she got a mega long-term gig and I got a measly two days .

but,
did you suck there dick?

The key us sucking the dick. You can get anything you want sucking dick. Just got to suck dick. Suck enough dick and you can get a house, car, etc..

you'd take the cock and you suck it

Yeah unfortunately I did open my mouth but when I saw how skanky it was I preffered to stay home and starve

12:42,

Take that pompous and judgmental stick out of your "top tier degrees" pedigreed ass and you might have a better chance.

If you are so hot with your "top tier degrees," why are you temping?

In the temp world, where you come from do not mean anything as even a high schooler can read and code. In fact you top degrees might be a liability to agencies. So if it has not occurred to me, I will remind you: you only got the 2 day project maybe because you lack personality and you are bitter - BITCH!

Yaaaaaaaawn.....next

True - later another recruiter told me my degrees could be an impediment. But you sound ghetto enough to get the job...how come you sitting at home and posting with us bitter and personality-less pedigreed people?

with the exception of about 100 attorneys in the entire world, you are all a dime a dozen. shut up and do your work or i'll replace you with someone who will

12:42. "So if it has not occurred to me, I will remind you.."

What kind of sentence is that ---

Yeah Recruiter - and we'll replace you. Temp agencies are a dime a dozen in New York -- even if we code we are still more close to the law than your ass-sucking of lowly paralegal managers...

2:24 you'll replace me? that is the stupidest thing i have ever heard. way to go with your quick-witted comeback. i'm sure i've fired you at some point...

Yep, it's the truth. As far as I am concerned your lowly recruiter bitch ass works for me -- if you don't get me the job I want I move on...I have an excellent pedigree - I don't need to suck your mangled dick to get a job...I'm sure I've fired you -- actually come to think of it I probably never hired you when I saw your sleazoid
face...BEEEEATCH!!
and if you are going to ask me what am I doing temping?? have you been reading the papers - I worked at Skadden -- and after a few months I am sure I will be just fine...without you

Oh I worked at Skadden as an associate---beeeeeatch

Yeah, the IRS should probably look into Cohen's tax return. He is just the kind of guy who cheats and lies his way through life.

ummm...not really. my lowly recruiter behind works for the client, not the candidates. you my dear are a expendable commodity, despite your pedigree, which you seem to have recently found out. we all are. the difference between you and i is that i am not so overwhelmed with my false sense of self-importance and entitlement that i have lost sight of that fact. that is the difference. that and my giant commission check.

2:19,

Contrary to you inability to hold on to a job for more than 2 days, I am billing about 75 hours a week for the past 10 weeks with only a high school degree - like I told you.

I visit this site with the intention of getting some info on the temp market, but most often than not, I run into pathetic jackasses like you using words like ghettos and hos.

Maybe you are just not good enough, maybe you are just meant to stay home and bitch all day, or maybe everyone is just out to get you, especially people from the "hood."

What's the latest on Sotomayor?

Or Big Mamma?

I work as a paralegal manager. You will not believe the number of partners who are sick of recruiters. Many have told me they wish they could cut out these jackasses - but they are a necessary evil.
And us paralegal managers laugh at how these recruiters kiss our ass- they bring us cookies, give us tickets, try to do stupid small talk, even when we abuse them. They make us feel great....

As if partners really talk to paralegal managers....that was funny

Viva La Clovester!!

Wow. I found this blog just flipping through the Google Blogger list, and you guys are probably screwed as bad as anyone. Beggers at least get to have a net worth of $0, but you guys have to put up with everyone's bullshit for a long time until you can reach that financial point. Just for the privilege of working your a grudge job.

BTW, there is no "snitch line" in teaching, although I could see it happen soon. You should prank call the hell out of the snitch line--accusations of affairs you know about, even the silly nickname thing. I know I'd prank call it every time I got pizzed off. I'd call it from my cell at work, clicking away on the computer.

FUCK ALL YOU ALL. KILL SOOME FUCKING PARTNERS.

FUCKONG BURN THEIER HOUSES DOWN.

FUYCK SOME LAW SCHOOLS UP

FUCKK SKU FUCK CFU CY CYCFICL FUCK

It's funny... the attorneys here write like a class of Nazi 3rd graders, and a high school teacher is one of the first people here to write a coherent, sensible post without misspellings or grammatical mistakes, or racist diatribes.

What does that say about temp attorneys?

FUCK YOU 449,

FUCK YOU YOU FUCKING FROZEN TURD FUCKING BEEECTH

FUCK YOU

I WANT TO KILLLLLLLL

HI,
This is 4:49. I Freeze my own big turds and then use them as dildos.

: )

I love fucking my frozen turd dildo,

Hey anybody have any tips on how to freeze my turds faster, I love frozen dildos.

I also string small turds together to make my very own anal beads.
love,

A. Coohenn

I use the freezer in the breakroom to make my frozen turd dildos at work.

I love the idea of making a turd anal bead string out of my smaller turds. I find that if i roll then gronola they have a nice ribbed texture.

Perhaps an anonymous support group should be started for doc reviewers.... a 12 step one. The 12th step is to get the fuck out of this racket.

I just laughed my ass off reading these comments. At least we in the contract business, attorneys and recruiters, have a sense of humor. Here's to the weekend!

Is 4:47's outrage justified?

Is 4:47 exaggerating?

4:47, don't you think destroying lawschool buildings (at night, of course) is more ethical than killing partners. Do the partners really have their foot on your neck, or are you just angry that you can not be them?

Why don't document reviews work from home? I have a similar part time job scoring essays from state testing, and the essays just load up on a screen (they had been scanned). Surely it would be easier to load emails, etc. onto a similar platform, since they are already electronic. Anything paper can be scanned by minimum-wage workers on high-speed scanners.

Sullivan needs a snitch line to report Alex Gaylard and the rest of those solitaire playing, dvd watching, sleeping behind the boxes, billing till 5am, agency bribe accepting scumbag losers - and I'm not talking about an anonymous tipline to report Clovester's gross fasion abuses either. They can set up a separate hotline for that.

They need a sexual harassment or sexual disappointment line for ALEX GAYLLARD. He suffers from DSB... DSB stand for the disease known as DEADLY SPERM BUILD-UP. It is an awful condition which side effects include "shit face," "crankiness" and overall incompetence.

Maybe if his wife blew him more often, his crappy disposition would change...work product would improve and S&C would receive some form of benefit from his employ.

Snitches in this field are never anonymous. They always try to curry favor. The worst snitches aren't the temps, but the annoying legal assistants.

Agencies only care about one thing, namely they are attracted to people who bill a ton of hours. As long as the candidate is sneaky and can get away with it, the agency could care less and will continue to place the unethical candidate.

Also, doing a solid job on any of these projects really doesn't pay off. Many times getting fired is entirely out of your hands. You could be an excellent reviewer, but happen to be on the wrong side of the racial quota when firings are being carried out. There is great racism on these projects directed against the white male.

Yes! Finally I can be the elitist, slimy subhuman lowlife that I truly am deep down inside!

I agree. Doing a good job has nothing to do with whether you get a raise or not. Nobody reads the shit the temps do anyway. Like they're relly going to give important docs to temps.

It's awl about da billable hours! Repeat after me, "law is a money business", "law is a money busines", "law is a money business".

Make your money, smile and shut up! Don't cause trouble and bill bill bill!

The nature of the beast is to become as lazy as possible on these projects if one can get away with it. The work is so boring. The firms encorage it by providing the internet to surf.

There are always a few nuts who love to code and really work hard. It is my experience that if you stick your head above the crowd and rat on someone you might very well get fired yourself as the agencies don't want problems and they want to bill AMAP. If you do rat do it anonymously.

1st level review may not ultimately matter in the grand scheme of things, but fucking up your documents is the surest way to be culled from the project. Rest assured that what you code is being reviewed. Responsiveness is often grey, and when in doubt mark it yes. More importantly, if you are going to mark something responsiveness make sure it isn't privileged!

I don't know why anyone is worried about a tip line. You are all perfect employees who never surf the net or look for new jobs while on a project. You are certainly entitled to everything.

There's the occasional test doc you have to mark for QC, but it's almost impossible to miss them. They're usually red hot.

Aside from that, nobody give a fuck what you're doing as long as you hit the magic number. Trying to do a good job will get you fired as much as it will get you noticed.

Hit the number, get the test docs, act stupid, and you'll be fine. Don't beleive any BS that you're doing an actual job.

I love documents! Do love them as much meeeee?

I come to this site when I worry about my future and the choices that I am making. However scary and financially uncertain those choices are, I have to thank God I am getting out of reviewing documents. I was feeling down today about my business, but now I feel up. Sometimes peace of mind is worth so much than money.

11:50
