[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hospitality industry. The hours are terrible and your coworkers are not the best representative of society. My brother is in a no where mid-management position. Glad I went to law school and love working as an attorney. It’s all relative. [/quote]
This thread is for personal experience, not for you to crap in the choices of others, Mr. Big Shot  :roll: [/quote]

Before I went to law school, I waited tables in undergrad, then became a low-level manager.  In my experience, the job and industry are terrible. I would stress over the job, which didn’t pay well and had no real opportunity for upward movement. Then stay out late drinking with the rest of the staff. Not a healthy life and can’t imagine it with a family. My brother has a family and it’s difficult to have such weird work times. He misses a lot.

Working as a government attorney pays decent, hours are stable, and I like the work. The government paid most of my student loans and I’ll get a decent pension. I would do it again if given the chance. [/quote]

So you are saying waiting tables or tending bar is a bad career choice?  What about coal mining?  Thanks for chiming in, Captain Obvious.[/quote]
