Hi. It's great to see your post here. I have some questions to ask for your guidance. I am currently a chambering student in Ipoh. I have just started for 2 weeks. However, I am not comfortable with the working environment there. The firm had been established since 30 years ago. Nevertheless, because of the employer's problem, the old staffs all resigned. The staffs now are new and some even just joined the firm few months ago. My master is very fierce and strict to me. If i dont understand anything and i ask him about it he will look at me and say sarcastically:" like this u also dont understand?" but i just graduated from University 1 month ago. Besides, as i said earlier, all the staff are new. The LA is new too. Therefore, the operation of the firm is slow and messy. I dont know how to handle the workload. I have noone to guide me also. I wish i could change another firm but i have filed in Form 1 to 5 and have paid RM300 for the fees. I have got my short call last friday. I am so frustrated because i am there to learn yet i have to deal with the old cases left behind by the former clerks and lawyer. Everyday i am so stressful because i am answerable not only to my master, i have to deal with the clients, answer phone calls, and doing paper works. The conveyancing clerk comes after 6. so i have noone to guide me yet the clients are chasing after me because of the cases. I will get scolded by my master and clients. i wish to change to another firm but i have no idea what are the procedures. my master has paid me the RM300 for the forms. do i need to pay again if i were changing to another firm? thank you so much!
