When Matthew Crawley, a partner at Swire, Weatherby & Crawley, posted an ad for an articled clerk at The Times, he did not expect to end up facing the most beautiful woman he’s ever seen the very next morning. “Mr Crawley, let me first state several facts to save time. First of all, I am not here to seek a position as a secretary; I want to be your articled clerk to become a solicitor, which the Sex Disqualification Act does allow me to attempt if I find a qualified solicitor willing to be my supervisor. Yes, my title is real and my father is an earl, but it has no bearing on the fact that I want to become a solicitor. No, I won’t leave your firm halfway through my apprenticeship to get married since I already am. No, I won’t be missing work all the time to take care of my children, since I don’t have any. No, I won’t quit halfway through the apprenticeship to have a baby, since it’s highly unlikely I’m going to get pregnant any time soon. Yes, I am very sure of that. No, I am not just here to waste your time, assuming your ad in the jobs section of The Times is genuine and you’re really looking for an apprentice. If it’s not, you’re wasting my time.”
