Question.1878 - The memo has footnotes. It has exhibits. It is crisp and professional and is written on stationery of Paul,Weiss,Rifkind,Wharton & Garrison,one of New York's elite law firms. Indeed,it is the hottest law firm memo around town, but it is not about Enron,Tyco or any corporate scandal. Itwas not even written by a lawyer. It is the sushimemo, and here is its story. A Paul Weiss partner,Kelley D.Parker,apparently received a subpar order of takeout sushi. So,according to the memo, she asked a paralegal to research local sushi restaurants. The paralegal took to the task aggressively,interviewing lawyers and staff members at the firm, reading online and ZagatSurvey reviews, and producing a three-page opus with eight footnotes and two exhibits (two sets of menus).The memo concludes by expressing the hope that Ms. Parker will now be able to choose "the restaurant from which your dinner will be ordered on a going-forwa rd basis."Adapted from Jonathan D.
