Date: May 18th, 2025 10:20 PM Author: vibrant stage full-time in-person well paying prestigious job (5+ hours of work per week) to full-time in-person slightly better paying slightly more prestigious job (40+ hours of work per week).
I'm 5 years into my legal career and there's no longer anything left for me to learn in my current position.
I could sit around for another 20 years collecting a $200K paycheck and doing 5 hours of work per week, but that seems unmanly and undignified to me.
OTOH I could just start reading for pleasure and read novels at my desk. For the past two months, I've been hiding under my desk playing Nintendo Switch, but it's a little cramped there. Maybe I could buy a screen to pull over the glass pane to my office so passersby can't see me goofing off. |

if you have any other ambitions you should stick with the sinecure imo. trying other pursuits when you have a full time real job is extremely difficult if not impossible for almost everyone |

Date: May 19th, 2025 12:17 PM Author: vibrant stage I want to be an AUSA and USDJ.
This opportunity would give me substantive litigation experience in discovery, motions practice, settlement, trial, etc.
I would not have the opportunity to acquire/develop these skills in my current position.
In short, I would like to be a gay, fat, bald, retarded litigator. |

Date: May 19th, 2025 8:22 PM Author: comical khaki theater appreciate hearing your thought process, as foreign as it is to me. seems like AUSA and USDJ are hard to get unless you have a lot of prestige AND connections AND the right party in office - but maybe you do. and a transition is obviously a big one-time hit, in addition to, you might actually have to work a lot harder per wee going forward. sounds like you know what you want to sign up for anyway (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5723914&forum_id=2]#48945721) |
