Top Law Schools

Or are you going to wait until June/July?

I'll tell you what, I wish I could walk out of this bitch today. Except they pay me too much damn money and I have too many damn bills... I'm ready to SNAP!

Mine pays little and is high stress.

I have cc debt & student loan debt from undergrad and have to pay my rent & utilities...sigh. So I'm sticking with it until the summer unless I wanna move back in with my parents and try to temp.

+1!

I, for one, CANNOT WAIT TO QUIT.

I'm thinking of quitting at the end of May, just cos I need to save $ to buy a laptop for law school (my old one won't last 3 more yrs lol), and for relocation expenses...

I was ready to quit a year ago. Nevertheless, I'll probably stay until July 1st. That's assuming I don't get lucky and get laid off.

Last day is tomorrow.

I'll be working until end of July / early August. I got a mortgage to pay and with this market who know how soon the house will sell (and how much I'll get for it - I haven't built much equity either).

Oh I would love to get laid off, then I could collect some unemployment. I've been slacking-off hardcore with high hopes...

If I do go to school, I'll probably stay till August. I'm not sitting on a trust fund.

No trust fund and a bit of debt here, should be exciting.

Ya I'm counting down till I quit. Luckily or unluckily, my job is seasonal, she when I quit in probably June I actually wont miss out on much cash.

Of course I also am one of those praying to get fired. Unemployment checks sound so good right now.

I come home everyday and threaten to quit. No training (for f's sake, I write demands!), too much stress, too much responsibility, not enough pay, and now they had to fire the cleaning company and they want me to clean the office.

Sometimes I miss retail.

On the plus side, now I know exactly which types of law not to go into and how not to run a successful law office.

No trust fund here either. True, quitting months before school starts means no more stable income. But it also means you get a much needed time off before the most grueling year of your life. The first year matters SO MUCH, that I think having a good, fun, stress-free summer is very important.

I think I'm in a different position, since I have well out of college and I've been working at this job for over 8 years. I'll take a couple weeks off, but I would be bored out of my mind not working for several months.

I have a lot of cc dent from undergrad...like $2k Ugh I'm trying to pay it off before law school starts...so I'll be sticking w/ my job (if I don't get laid off). My pay is so shitty though, I don't know if I'll be able to pay it all off before then.

*edited because I meant to say $2,000...not 2 million*

I took voluntary separation. My last day is Tuesday. I'm am going to be very bored for the next several months. (If only they had waited to offer it until April...)

Come on. $2 million in credit card debt? Flame.

$2000K=$2,000,000, wow that must have been quite the undergrad!

what?! $2,000K?! That's a typo right?

Well in any case... living modestly for a couple years after law school will take care of the law school debt, so that's a relief.
