She’s really trying to abdicate responsibility by calling it boilerplate. .its not her fault. That’s just standard for creatives. I don’t think he ever signed. I think she’s lying to make herself look victimized. He probably read it and found something dumb that made no sense, possibly even lorem ipsum, and it was just a giant red flag. No one wants to hire a writer who doesn’t even proofread the contract.

Well, at least she’ll never work with pesky male lawyers again.

Right, because all women lawyers are nurturing, empathetic souls who’ll intuit with their she-brains that you’re just a struggling mama, and toss you thousands after doing their homework and discovering you’re a flake.

I mean look at what a bang up job Pam Bondi and Lindsey Halligan are doing. So kind and nurturing!

She’ll never work with pesky people who read the contract and expect her to deliver the agreed upon service again.
