[quote=Anonymous]My father was managing partner of a prestigious law firm (head office not based in DC) for years, and unfortunately, if the higher-ups are questioning your work, you have only a small (very small) amount of time before something is done about your position. I firmly believe that it's better to be master of your own destiny, so if you have really given it your all, I would start looking for jobs that are more on par with what you left. It is better to tighten the belt and be happy with your work life than to limp along in a job you hate, feel stressed, and pick up a drinking problem along the way. That is a no-win for everyone. Perhaps it's painful, but you've not said why you need this $$...is it tuition to a school? Lots of kids? A big mortgage? Because so many people make do on smaller salaries than a lawyer's, even a mediocre lawyer. GL, and I hope you resolve the situation soon...I really feel for you :([/quote]
