Law is a dead field. I feel bad for you guys

How does it feel to work like a dog, constantly worrying about ITE pwnage?
I, on the other hand, have a totally different life. I work 35 hours a week and make 250K/year as a general dentist (the numbers for hours/income are just average for a general dentist. Specialists earn more working the same hours).
Being the dentist is a slick job. At times it can be stressful, but mostly dentistry is a lot of fun, a little grief, and an overall great way to work. Unless you're a major loser with a rotten/nonexistent personality (like most of my classmates in dental school), your hygiene department will make you so much money your bigtime physician friends won't believe it.
It's pretty easy stuff. I tell people what they need and give them what they want. No hard sell here. Why would I? My life is already so sweet I don't need to sell. I joke around with patients, play video games in my office, drink coffee, flirt with the hygienists, etc. And they call this working.

Date: June 22nd, 2012 1:57 AM Author: Histrionic point dingle berry yeah, law must be really fun. That's why you work twice as many hours for less income. That's why you are ok with constantly worrying about ITE pwnage. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1976531&forum_id=2#20934151) |

|
Date: June 22nd, 2012 2:06 AM Author: Vibrant lavender cuckoldry hmm i don't work 70 hours a week. many don't. pretty reasonable hours actually. and i like what i do and find it interesting. people i know who have jobs only requiring a college degree make shit pay, are bored to death and make shit pay.
it's all about doing what interests you. i never even considered being a doctor because the subject never interested me. some would never consider law because they find it boring. |

|
Date: June 22nd, 2012 2:42 AM Author: Aromatic regret stage no, very high, or at least, it's a high percentage of what a litigator at a big firm does. you don't engage some firm that charges over 500 an hour to work on some dinky slip and fall at your store in Paramus (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1976531&forum_id=2#20934325) |

Date: June 22nd, 2012 2:46 AM Author: Histrionic point dingle berry You are giving an example of the top 0.1% cases in law, and yet you are comparing it with teeth cleaning.
Ever heard of OMFS in dentistry or spine surgery in medicine? |
|
Date: June 22nd, 2012 2:51 AM Author: Aromatic regret stage no, I'm not comparing anything with teeth cleaning. I have no idea what the percentages are, but being the sort of lawyer who does divorces and works in small-claims court is just a fundamentally different profession than what I do. so it's irrelevant to me that there's this whole world of crap in something that's nominally my profession (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1976531&forum_id=2#20934355) |
|
Date: June 22nd, 2012 2:59 AM Author: Histrionic point dingle berry you prolly won't consider doctors your servant when you are in the emergency room. And you prolly won't consider dentist your servant when you fracture your teeth.
Just like most of us consider lawyers as our servant unless they do this 0.1% of cases that involves millions.
Even then, you are just a small part of the firm. Whereas a doctor/dentist does most of the job himself.
