What do you do?

I am a lawer I work on car and truck loans.

What technology do you use? We use telecommunication devices (telephones), computers, fax machines, copy machines, calculators. We also have electronic devices for controlling the heating and cooling and elevators.

What has changed over the time? The production of documents has changed a lot. We now use computers and word processors rather than typewriters. Also, we now deliver most documents electronically, mostly by email, rather than by the mail or messenger. In addition, most meetings are now by phone rather than in person.

What do you do on a average day? I read and revise documents. I also talk to clients on the phone to find out what they want and how they want to change the documents. I also spend a lot of time negotiating with the opposing side and their counsel.

Do you ever travle for your job? Yes, I travle not a lot but I have to go to meatings sometimes but usually I have my meatings over the phone.
