Our Career Development Office hosted a “Torts Networking Event” tonight, and since I’m all about torts, I decided to go.
Turned out that there were seven students who attended and a grand total of one attorney who showed up over an hour late. And she was a civil defense lawyer — also known as “the enemy” to me. Not much in the way of networking.
Oh well. It was fun anyway.
For one, we were at Gladstone’s of Malibu, situated on the Pacific Ocean where Sunset Boulevard ends.
For two, the seafood was tasty.
For three, the tasty seafood was free.
For four, our two CDO ladies–Aymara & Georgia–were fun conversationalists, most of it revolving around the excellent selection of ’80s music in the restaurant (even more, Aymara & Georgia are more my generation than my fellow students!).
For five, I didn’t have to study tonight.
And, as icing on the cake, I got to pick up Hillary from dance class where I got to see her dance a little bit.
So, all in all, not a bad evening for five bucks full of valet parking.
