Not enough real lawyerin' work?

And they wonder why people in general think less of lawyers than used car sales people? This little tid-bit is a good start.

Apparently one Michael Kraik Esq., attorney and definitive judge of hockey skill and capability, has, in defense of his son, Alexander, filed suit against the local minor hockey association because his superstar child was cut from the "A" club. The suit alleges that rampant nepotism was behind the younger Mr. Kraik's debasing playing on the "B" squad. The humiliation, pain, and suffering is worth $50,000 in Mr. Kraik's estimation.

So, what if you were working at an organizational level beneath your station and self-determined skill level? Sue! Here's some language as generously prepared by Mr.Kraik the Elder in his Statement of Claim:

"The tortious acts of the defendants, in their public branding of Alexander Kraik [<-- replace with your name] as an inferior hockey player [<-- your occupation], was especially hurtful to Alexander Kraik [<-- your name again] because the conclusions of the defendants were at odds with his objective performance at the evaluation sessions staged by the defendants,"
