[quote=Anonymous]Another post had a comment about no one has passion for law and I tend to kind of see this in my own household.  I am a physician and I work with many doctors who just want to make a lot of money but I also work with many many others who are truly dedicated to their line of work.  Especially ones who spend years of their lives researching and never really "getting credit/making it big" but doing tons of backbone work for the field.  I also know physicians who makes way less money then they did ten years ago and work way more hours but don't mind because medicine is what we do.  I feel very similar and am realizing as I get older how blessed I am to feel that way.  My husband is a lawyer and truly has no passion and even a slight dislike for his line of work.  For years I thought he was a "work to live person" and maybe I was a "live to work person" but I am finding over the course of decades together in the same social circle almost no lawyer I know likes their job.  I just really see very little self satisfactory in the field and was curious to see if maybe my sample was just a random error or if it seems to ring true.  Anyone care to chime in? [/quote]
