Negotiator
One of those good, well-tempered folk of the documentation unit whose task, though not Herculean in any aspect except its tedium, is stoutly resisting predictions that it will be automated by the end of the year — a prediction that legal and technology luminaries have been making regularly since 1995.
Still, every character archetype has a weakness, and the Jolly Contrarian can reveal the intrinsic fallibility at the soul of every ISDA negotiator, and that is a total cluelessness about how to apply paragraph formatting in Microsoft Word. Just cannot do it. Page breaks and multi-level automatic paragraph numbering test are trying enough, but formatting the table of Documents for Delivery is a guaranteed disaster in any ISDA Schedule.
