What do you do at work today, if the FBI came and took all your files yesterday?

Asked by elbanditoroso (33577points) April 10th, 2018

I’m wondering what Michael Cohen will do today when he gets into his office.

The FBI took all his Trump-related files, and (according to the news) Trump was pretty much Cohen’s only client.

So let’s say that Cohen walks into his office at 9:00am today. What will he do all day? and, how?

He could now dust where the files were.

Update my resume or make some travel plans for a trip abroad?

Make a phone call to Boris and Natasha?

All kidding aside, he should talk to his own lawyer.

And then he should call his own clients.

Start looking over my shoulder to see if the former client has “HIT” on my back.

He faces a looming legal bill. He needs to call in that $130k loan made to Trump the week before the election.

@Call_Me_Jay – no way will Trump pay that loan off, at least not right now with the eyes of the world on everything that goes on in the White House.

Cohen is up shits creek.

Someone needs to answer the phone calls from clients losing their shit.

Um, I would restore from backups and continue working, unless they told me they would abuse me if I did that.

I’d think Cohen would also have electronic forms of everything and restore from backups. Unless he’s foolish… well he does work for Trump… maybe he just talks to Trump’s people all day and charges hourly so… ka-ching ka-ching ka-ching…

It would be a normal work day, safe for the phone call from the feds, whom I tell that their agents have yet to arrive, while the meat grinder rumbles in the backgroud.

He’ll spend the day wondering whether working for Trump was such a good idea.

Play candy crush on his cell phone?

If I’m allowed to keep working, not much would be different, assuming I still have access to the scheduling calendar we use, I’d just be starting new files. If I won’t have access to my information for the days since Jan 1, I’ll have trouble doing my taxes at the end of the year.

He could do some workout exercises, since he has some free time. Maybe he could practice bending over and picking up the soap.

I suppose if I really needed my files, I’d go down to the hardware store and get some more.
