law degrees no longer a golden ticket.

no kidding.

just another reason i try to discourage all of you young things from going to law school.

i love, love, love working for a small firm where most of these rules don’t apply.

but i am one of the lucky few.

….eh, I am not one of the lucky few.  I do not complain about the shit storm that is the legal profession. Good article, but its been said countless times before these past two years.  Big firm law was once a soul-less, pay check collecting nightmare, now its just a soul-less nightmare.  At least I know that now, not that I can really be too choosy on the job hunt.

Exactly why I keep fighting my parents on the Law School front. It’s a great thing if that is what you want to do. But if it’s not your passion, it’s not a fix-it-all easy solution. It’s sometimes worse.
