between Partners, Senior
Partners, Managers and the rest that includes Jeremy, the law clerks and office
staff. Jeremy is happy to find his feet within the firm so he doesn’t really
concern himself greatly about promotion at this point. As Matthew sits in front
of Jeremy, he notices a different side to his boss. He notices that Matthew is
very anxious, very agitated. ‘You know Jeremy there are times when I really
wonder what I have to do to be noticed, what I have to do to be invited to take
that next step. Do you know what I am saying?’ Jeremy could do little more than
nod and be seen to be there for his boss, he thinks. It is difficult for him to
offer an opinion so Jeremy decides that he would nod, smile and offer
encouragement and support.
    ‘I feel that the only way I can be
noticed is to be involved in a big case. You know it’s all about money Jeremy,
all about the dollars that come in. That seems to be the only way that you get
noticed. That seems to be how the world works these days, doesn’t it?’ Matthew
adds.  Jeremy maintains his position of support by nodding, smiling and
appearing to be interested in everything that Matthew has to say. ‘You know
that dickhead Brian Topping. I mean what an absolute Wally he is. He told me
two years ago that it was just a matter of time and I would be welcomed as a
partner and that was fucken two years ago. Two years ago and still no change!’
Jeremy again just smiles; he really doesn’t want to add any commentary or
opinion where it relates to a Senior Partner, and certainly not anything about
Brian Topping who is almost as senior as anyone that Jeremy could think of.
    There was little that Jeremy could add
and he waited an opportunity to excuse himself so that he could head home.
Matthew had calmed down seemingly getting all of his emotional baggage off his
chest. Now just staring around the room, Jeremy adds, ‘Well I best be off.’ No
sooner had he spoken and he is heading out the door with a pat on the back and
big thank you from Matthew for hearing him out. Jeremy politely nods and walks
down the street meandering and not really knowing where or why he is heading in
the direction he is. He again unwittingly places his small finger in his ear
and thrashes it around for a brief moment.
