Discussion: Prospective Lawyer, Practicing Lawyer
Practicing Lawyers are likely to have been on both sides of this chat…
It’s one that has occured for generations and will continue to occur.
Which Litination has kindly condensed to this:
Prospective lawyer: “I think I’m going to apply to law school, I just love the idea of being a lawyer.”
Practicing lawyer: “Listen kid, this is not something you want to pursue. If you do, you’ll be saddled with a constant feeling of impending doom equivalent to that dream you’ve probably had about wearing your underwear to class or forgetting to study for a test. In time, this will cause all of your emotions to die…just die.”
Prospective lawyer: “Um, ok. Point taken. I think I’ll go with Plan B and enlist in the military.”
You know it.

Yep, not far off. Military is not my ideal alternative but the irony of something so risky instead is not lost.

Not quite my language but I have definitely been the practicing lawyer once or twice!
