Thankfully it seems like the law firm employee was quite taken aback by the whole thing.
So yeah, in a way it's quite the endorsement of my lovely wife that he felt like that's the only way to keep her as an employee, but he'd have a lot better time actually, you know, paying a living wage and following through when he makes a promise.
But that's crazy, right?
