[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]op here -- everything you said sounds perfectly sensible and correct. For me, the key distinction between us is where you say "I love my job." I am quite confident I would not love being a biglaw associate. I'm not sure I would hate it, but at best it would be a not-unbearable thing to do while paying down loans and providing for my family. I think I would actually love the work I would be doing at DOJ, but as you point out the sacrifices I would be asking my family to make in service of my professional passions are significant and perhaps too much.[/quote] OP, it's pretty clear you've already decided what you're going to do. Are you here looking for validation from others? If so, I guess you've gotten some people to agree with you. There are obviously several people who would choose BigLaw over DOJ though. I'm not sure you're going to get anywhere trying to convince them they're wrong in their opinions, and I'm not understanding why you'd want to. You can no longer credibly describe yourself as an "undecided voter," so why are you prolonging the discussion? (BTW, I'm not trying to berate you or to argue; I'm just trying to understand what you're trying to accomplish by debating those that don't agree with your plan to choose DOJ.)[/quote]
