There is little question it is an instant gratification world today. Text messages, instant messages, email, the internet. We are always plugged into the matrix, it seems. Not everything can be obtained instantly, though. Legal advice cannot always be provided instantly, as an example. A quick internet search and bingo, there's your answer. Sometimes, but not for complex problems, novel or unusual legal problems and including consideration of all the unique factual twists and turns of a given matter. The law changes quickly and there is no big book or website containing all the answers at one page turn or click. There are many gray areas, just like in every aspect of life.
It is okay for all of us to learn and to practice patience. The world is not going to come to an end if we don't get an answer to every problem or query instantly. Research, analysis and careful thought should not be a thing of the past, whether we are talking about law or other areas of life. Take the time to look up from your electronic devices occasionally and truly engage in the world around you. If not, you really are living in The Matrix. http://www.employmentlawman.com/monday-morning-musings.html
