"People who go to law school don't get a job" Forum

[Ludo!]

When I worked in the legal world, it wasn't full of cussing.

lolwut

If the cussing was done outside of work, I wouldn't know about it. At lunch or in the office, no cussing was involved. I worked for multiple attorneys, in multiple departments, but primarily litigation where I would assume you would hear more cussing. Didn't happen. They were professionals. Maybe that's not the norm, who knows.

You went to lunch with attorneys?

Not to defend her, but it's not that uncommon, if that's what your inferring. Especially for interns.

ITT: Bearsgrl thinks she'll do great on the LSAT if she points out every assumption!

Cuz you do that on the test, get it?

I'm pretty sure Bearsgrl is already in at Stanford. shittin' I am not.

I wouldn't be that surprised - there are idiots at every law school.

Hopefully being there for 3 years will help her learn California geography

Because as an idiot, one knows that you don't type numbers below 10 with a numerical expression? This is fun!

And nope, I decided against CA schools because of their atrocious economy and high rent prices! I wouldn't want to do the commute to LA if you paid me.

[Ludo!]

I was neither, but ok.

Never claimed to be an expert. Now can you stop talking to me?

Secretary, escort, whatever the hell you were you weren't a lawyer. And you claim all the time to know how the legal world works (like when you said law firms don't have their own cafeterias) when really you only know how it worked at one firm

SURPRISE, INTERNET BOARDS DON'T REQUIRE THE SAME INTELLECTUAL AND EDITORIAL RIGOR AS YOUR 10TH GRADE ENGLISH CLASS!

Also, commuting to LA from Stanford?

That one was genuine question actually. Wasn't implying anything

I must have missed the chapter in Strunk&White that told me how to type numbers on a messageboard

Hey BearsGrl, in what context have you worked with attorneys or how do you know them or whatever? Just wondering!

There was a general public cafe open to professionals at large and attorneys ate there, if they went "outside" to eat. I didn't care where the attorneys ate. I cared that I did a nice, professional job for them. I was re-offered the position at the end of my stint and came back to work during the holiday season. So yes, it's common to see attorneys all over. And no, they didn't cuss when at lunch. And the attorneys that I met in other departments didn't cuss when you were in their presence. They seemed like pretty normal, even-keeled individuals. Perhaps you only know folks that cuss. My experience didn't fit your story. Doesn't mean your story false. It just makes it your story to tell.

I went and SWAT-ed Bearsgrl and looked through her poasts. I really don't know if I could take her going to Stanford. Maybe if I get in I would be more accepting but not on the WL. She was denied at Tulane so I doubt she is "turning down" California. Apparently though, LA is a state.

Happy to have a decision either way, plus Tulane is ridiculously expensive. Not sure if it would've been worth that investment right now, given that I didn't see myself in the state of LA long-term.

Never claimed I knew any different. If your firm has a cafeteria, awesome. Not sure what your beef is, but whatever entertains you.

Are you seriously white knighting BearsGrl?

[BearsGrl]

Also, commuting to LA from Stanford?

No, just a general statement about CA driving in general. It's just not pretty to me. Too much desert, not enough green. And like I said, rent is atrocious. Along with other charges/fees/normal costs of living.

Hmmm. Maybe attorneys are more conservative when in the public cafe or something, I don't know. But outside the office every attorney I've interacted with at the 2 firms I've worked at, and attorneys from every other firm I've ever encountered, have cussed like normal people.

I guess you just know more normal people that cuss. I try not to hang out with cussing people. I find that they are full of massive drama. Not my thing, but to each his or her own.

Everybody cusses. I don't know how you could even have friends if you don't hang out with "cussing people." Are you super religious or something?
