[quote=Anonymous]I don't regret it, but full acknowledge that I was lucky. The Army paid for most of my education and then gave me a great law job right out of school. Even then I didn't know how good I had it and after four years I decided to "cash in" on a high paying job at a big law firm, only to discover how awful life could feel. I felt fortunate to escape back to a government law job. I'm now at over 20 years of service with just 7 left to retire but probably won't leave, since I get well paid for a 40 hour a week job that I find interesting and still leaves a balance for family and travel and other interests. Unless you can get into the government, or can make ends meet at a nonprofit, or are the rare breed who loves BIGLAW (and they are out there), I can see how finding both employment and happiness as a lawyer be really hard.
