Lighten Up Already!

Schuchman_alanPeople who make us laugh at work are to be treasured.  Too often we are too damn serious about life, each other and ourselves.  Once in a while we get an opportunity to hire or work with a former class clown, irreverant practical joker, or closet stand-up comedian.  If you have a chance to hire a competent clown, don't hesitate. 

This week our firm said goodbye to one of our most creative clowns.  Alan Schuchman has lead our firm's FITPOLCOM (Fun In The Practice Of Law Committee), penning party announcements in puns and taking the point in the Associate Skit, which is more of a partner roast than anything else.

Not to disappoint, he left us with this resignation letter (given with Alan's permission).

Thanks for the laughs, Alan.  We were blessed to have a clown like you around.
