The younger attorneys around here are the ones who annoy me the most.
Law school and the first few years of practice are brutal with this. It is completely consuming...and why I never hung out with other law student or attorneys.

I didn't lie on it...that day. Had to go back a couple weeks later.

there is a lot of this in the older generations
it's the same with how they think of being a lawyer is some elevated position
we are nothing more than a service industry with some fiduciary duties. we are not this special badge of honor and social status
Last month I was talking to a friend who I've known since middle school, and he was asking about my job. I made an offhand remark, something like "well, you know, it's not like it's a calling." He was stunned: "of course it is."
It made me feel a little bad about my cynicism. I think it says something that someone who isn't a lawyer thinks more highly of the profession than someone who is.

And I'm back! Lost wifi for that compassion fatigue speech.
I laughed when he said his friends were killed by pirates.
Subtle brag about sailing for 5 yrs.

That's some cold shite right there. His story gave me a lot of hope. I was really close to quitting "the profession" altogether.
I know you were kidding. Just sayin.

I want open a bar for all the depressed lawyers. 4400 is a niche of the market I can thrive on.

I hardly ever talk about work outside of work. In fact, we went to some event for my daughter's junior high, and most of our daughter's friends' parents thought I was in construction.
We've known them for years.

I was with lawyers this weekend. They were talking work. I was talking this week in tigerdroppings. I'm a loser.

Some people around me may be onto this thread. I have to be careful. They were laughing.

Talking about work is the worst
Posting from my living room. This is way better
