[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You lost me when you placed sarcasm quotes around the word 'stress.'  Do you have any idea how brutal biglaw can be?[/quote]

Oh boo hoo, I'm tired of the woe is me lawyers on this forum. "WAAAH! I'm a lawyer and I only make $150,000! WAAAH! It will take me 7 years to make partner and rake in my $1M."

You realize in most other fields, a lateral hire will result in lower pay? Only in law do you guys feel entitled to similar pay when you jump ship to another firm.[/quote]

While I have no great love or sympathy for BigLaw slaves, sentiments like these above are often expressed by people who couldn't cut it in another field.  Based on my conversations with the 3 doctors in my family your assumption couldn't be more wrong,[b] they have all dealt with relatively inexperienced and entitled young MD's who have the same feeling. [/b] I think your stereotype is weak, to say the least.[/quote]

So you're saying my stereotype is weak because it applies to medicine as well? I think that strengthens it. We live in an entitled society. True, it's not just Big Law[/quote]
