[quote=Anonymous]I have been a state government lawyer for over a decade. I've applied for other jobs, including a more advanced position, and I'm still here. My job is secure given that I am in a union. I can pay the bills and I provide health insurance for my family. I can get to evening and weekend sporting events of my kids. I felt hesitant posting here. It's not always the most supportive place. I feel guilty for "complaining" because there are so many unemployed lawyers. My co-workers range from depressed, bitter, disengaged, dopey and wearing rose colored glasses. I have a co-worker who has zero self-esteem, projects all these things onto me, is jealous of me but also thinks of me as her best friend at work. I guess that makes us "frenemies". Thanks for listening and offering any useful suggestions or insights. A fellow urban mom. [/quote]
