Seems pretty unnecessary to update imo. Definitely wouldn't help if you were negotiating schollys either. I'd sweep it under the rug

Appreciate your desire to be honest - absolutely not. If you were to start a new job between now and when you get the decision, sure. Self flagellation never a good idea in law school apps

You're not misunderstanding it, but I would also advise to just let it ride. Even if you did update the schools about your job (have you actually been fired, or is this just speculation?), it probably won't affect your admission decisions because it's such a small element of the admissions decision process (i.e., it's not a change in your LSAT or GPA). It speaks positively of your character to be concerned about it, but there's no reason to shed negative light on your applications at this point. If any school asks (and they won't), you could always say you wanted to spend more time with your family, go on vacation, etc. before enrolling in law school.

No need to update them, particularly because you're not (potentially) going to be let go because of some egregious misconduct on your part.

lol no one gives a damn about your administrative job position (not to be offensive).
