[quote=Anonymous]Ok, here is my theory on how non-lawyers see this. Reading about the law, watching lawyer shows, movies, thinking about the law is all really intellectually stimulating and makes someone dissatisfied think "wow, this is a really intellectually challenging and interesting job where I can help people and that is also lucrative." Becoming an actual lawyer dissolves those ideas very, very quickly. You are mired in debt, unable to find a decent job, bored to death by your law school classes, and eventually bored to death in your job that pays an income you could have gotten doing, I don't know, HR or some other white collar job but with less suffering. That's if you're lucky. If you're unlucky you are either unable to find a job at all or you are trapped in golden handcuffs in a job that takes over your entire existence.[/quote]
