You guys can do whatever you want with your lives. I am going to try and get into law school and see what happens.
In finance and act I have seen entire offices where everyone is under 30. What happened to the older people? I have seen them offshore entire depts. I have seen people pushed out long before retirement age. They want one manager and 20 younguns to do all the work cheap. Then they push them all out before they get the real money. I have had interviewers openly question my age.
That doesn't happen in the legal profession. Everyone is old and works until death. There is always work everywhere there is always a shitty case no one else wants you can always find work. They get to dress up fancy act important and argue. It will be fun. But so will Law School not worried about law practice yet want to enjoy the journey.
Getting dressed up and heading to law school downtown for classes and studying in the library and going to lunch with other law students and working out in the gym eating in the food court sounds like fun. I even already know a bunch of lawyers I can argue with. Beats hanging out in a Hungarian sex club or arguing with English twats and posers about TRT dosages. But you guys do your things.
I will say if I get into Law School I get in I will become a walking billboard of bookstore Merch
That is bullshit. Look at the growth in under 21 year old paralegals working off scripts in stack em high get em done transactions. Allen & Overy moved all their back office out of London to Belfast as they could pay less. Freshfields Bruckhaus Derringer did the same with London to Manchester. Bottom line is this Brian the partners in firms now protect their P.E.P. as much as they can. They get people in as associates and work them into the ground for 6-8 years then glass ceiling them away from partnership. Your wife works for local govt doesn't she- so her opinion in the corporate world is irrelevant.
The thing about dressing up smart and arguing is nonsense. The vast majority of legal disputes now are one big drawn out negotiation.
You are fuckng clueless.
And the fact you are so clueless shows that this is all a ruse to get away from the fight.
You great big pussy.
Also having lunch with your fellow grads you will be 30 years older than them. You will creep them out. You will be a complete loner in law school as you are in everyday life. The absolute worst of luck in this and every endeavour you are involved in.
I can see it now in your rec interview
'so mr hankins you haven't worked in 13 years'
'well stock car racing is a lot like work'
'NEXT'
with you sat there in your horrific wedding outfit and the SCN medal round your 15' neck like a backwards flavour flav
