Tried to wait out the recession by going to law school. Turns out the legal economy lags about three years behind the rest of the economy. Underemployed and Unimpressed.
I made the mistake of talking to my classmates after my 1L Torts exam. Huge mistake. I was totally convinced I had failed until we got our grades…more than a frickin’ month later.
No, I went to a top school in my region, since this is where I want to practice. My choice of school actually got me my current job. Each year, my school’s USNWR ranking is somewhere between 50 and 80.
The problem with legal jobs expanding in the next decade is that the market shed so many jobs between 2007-2013 that the growth is simply not enough to employ the 40% of grads without suitable employment.
Huh? I’m 27. The next youngest person in my firm is 37. I’m a lawyer. If you’re implying that 27 is old…then I’m going to go cry in a corner with a bottle of bourbon.
I feel you on the healthcare. My last job was working for a county government. I paid almost nothing for healthcare as a single, young, healthy male. Now that I’m in private practice, I pay more than quadruple what I used to pay…and I still haven’t been to a doctor in three years.
Also sucks that I’m the youngest person here by a full decade.

Quoting Churchill is a power move.
Too unrealistic to be scary. I mean, come on. No one really gets 28 vacation days, right?

This is Karl Welzein’s wet dream.
Definitely don’t want to read anything written by Stefan ever again.

My dad still does this, regardless of how many times I tell him he only needs to click once.
Looks like he had them surgically give him some acne, too.
Can we break the 500 shaft pumps into, say, 200 x 2.5 pump sessions? I’m asking for a friend…

I want that painting.
If you know what a depreciating asset is, you probably aren’t still a kid.

I want Laura Hall and Linda Taylor to play me lullabies every night.
Watched the whole thing, and I don’t regret a second of it.
Don’t forget the lady with the loud, obnoxious laugh.
The quote is “real straight shooter with upper middle management written all over him.”
My license number ends in “666.” Just another piece of ammo for the “attorneys have no souls” crew.
