Watching everyone who makes 5-10 times what I do freaking out because our clients are going to go insane when my work doesn't get done, after having been overworked (Big Law hours) and underpaid (PI salary) for so long, is priceless. I hope they crash and burn.

Huh? That didn't make sense. You necro'd the thread with an emoticon. I responded to a thread at the top of the page.
