In what way might Monique's parents have contrib- uted to her lack of commitment to paralegal work? 4. What might be the career consequences for Monique if she does not become more enthusiastic about her present work assignments? Last seen 19 min ago estate department. Her work activities focused on the pa- perwork and electronic searches needed to support lawyers in closing on houses and small buildings. Monique thought to herself that it was curious that she and other paralegals did most of the work in preparing for closings, yet the law- yers were paid considerably more. One evening while at the athletic club where she was a member, Monique met Kurt, one of her former class- mates. When asked, "How's the job going at the law firm?" Monique replied, “To tell you the truth, Kurt, house clos- ings are a lot like airplane rides. After a half dozen or so, they are all the same. I get no thrill out of all the prep work for the closing. Yet, I do like to see the happy faces of the people when the deal is done." One afternoon Monique was standing in line at Quiz- no's to order a toasted sub for lunch. Right in front of her was Louise, the database manager at SCAA. Louise invited Monique to sit together after they paid the cashier. During lunch, Louise said to Monique that she had some curious feedback she had been thinking of sharing with her. e 11 11:04 AM "Please tell me, Louise.

One of the attorneys was telling me that he and a couple of his col- leagues refer to you as 'Monique Zombie.' Of course, I asked why. He said that it seems like you are just going through the motions with no passion about what you are doing." "Honestly, Louise," responded Monique. “I would show a little more passion at SCAA if I were closing on sky- scrapers or being paid what some of the partners in the firm are earning.

At a minimum, she could now satisfy her parents' demands that she work in the legal field. Monique's father frequently told her something to this ef- fect: "Even if we have an occasional recession, people are going to keep suing each other. They might even sue more during hard times just to get some money." Monique's mother kept emphasizing that being a paralegal would give her status and make other people think that she is some- body important After a brief job hunt, Monique found a position at the legal firm of Shea, Cohen, Antonelli and Armstrong (often referred to as SCAA by insiders).
