[quote=Anonymous]I'm with 20:41. it's possible that the decision to quit wasn't totally hers. Big law firm life can be brutal - she may have not realized what she was getting into at the time. She might also be depressed, or she might be looking for jobs all the time and nothing has come up. People who have always been employed don't always realize that it is tough out there right now. I got laid off in late 2007, just as the economy was going downhill, and it took me 6 mos to find a job. And I had a great background in terms of experience and education. I got really discouraged. And you can't just take *any* job - many employers won't hire overqualified people, and if you take a much lower-salary job, good luck ever getting back to your original level. you can stagnate for a long time if that happens.[/quote]
