The work I did on day six was the most gratifying work I have done in the past two weeks. Previously, I had spent time sifting through piles of denied cases, many of which ended in deportation or family separation. Today, however, I was able to do work which resulted in a bit more of a happily ever after. Using a format provided by the law firm, I wrote closing letters to several clients informing them that their case had been approved and that the firm was closing their file. I then finished scanning all of their documents into the online database, closed and sealed the closing letters, and then finally closed their cases. While their cases had ended, all with approvals, my battle was far from over as I then traversed to the mail box. I had fifteen minutes left in my day, plenty of time to drop off the letters and collect any letters sent to the firm. Unfortunately, I was wrong. I spent perhaps a good 10 minutes struggling with the wrong key to open up the firm’s box. Once it was done and I had overcome my adversary, I was finally, truly able to end six different cases as I dropped their closing letters into the mail.
