    I second the suggestion that as soon as someone pulls "I'll sue.." you go with "in that case, sir/ma'am, you need to speak with head office' legal department. I am not authorised to speak on <company's> behalf in legal matters."
    Seshat's self-help guide:
    1. Would you rather be right, or get the result you want?
    2. If you're consistently getting results you don't want, change what you do.
    3. Deal with the situation you have now, however it occurred.
    4. Accept the consequences of your decisions.

      Now I'm a lawyer
      personally i'd be tempted to ask him where he took the bar exam and which court he was sworn in at.


      and ooo in NY State at least you can look up who passed the bar exam in the past year.

      not to mention it's illegal to pose as a lawyer i think... yes?

          I don't know if it's illegal (at a guess it's location-dependent), but it strikes me that posing as such isn't that far apart from claiming to be a leper.

          (Yes, I know there are good lawyers out there, and it's only the minority wankers that get attention. Still, stereotypes are difficult to shake off, so to speak.)
          No matter how low my opinion of humanity as a whole gets, there are always over-achievers who seek to surpass my expectations.
