Your liver can only take so much. It would be a great job, if it weren't for the clients. 😉

That is a vicious circle, actually. The clients drive you to drink, and law school refines your taste in alcohol. You gradually start drinking pricier booze, until you have to get more clients to support your habit.
 
Incase you did not get the message; I have decided to seek legal representation elsewhere. You can go home now.

(Lawyer joke:

Q: What do you have if there's 9 lawyers buried up to their necks in sand?





















A: Not enough sand!
 
could be worse, I'm a pc tech, I make less than 1/4 what you do, and I'm on call 24/7 365, the only exception is if I take some of my meager 2 weeks a year vacation I dont' have to be on call. I've worked over 36 hours in one day (work day) before and got 4 hrs. sleep before turning around and working anohter 6 hours to finish out the next day.....

Cheer the fvck up 😀

Oh God yes.

I have one divorce case involving a suicide attempt and a SWAT situation. I have all sorts of crazies 😀

Hmmm... where do I begin?

I had a client come to me last year on a personal injury case. He pinched his junk in a broken toilet seat at a Walmart. I had to take pictures of said junk. That was a red letter day. (Why does someone lay their junk on a public toilet basin? That haunts me to this day.)

I was called an "as$hole cracker lawyer" by one client last year. She showed up to trial in a "Black Power" t-shirt with this tricked our peacock hairdo. Classy.

I have had clients who were sent home from physical therapy because they were stoned.

I have been offered a hummer in lieu of retainer. I declined.

A man called me up wanting to sue his son's elementary school because the kid tripped and fell on the playground. I asked "on what?" The prospective client said "Nothing." :roll: He should be ashamed of himself.

OP, you have 'good' problems.
Unless you fire yourself, you will never have to worry about a pink slip. That was my main reason for attending law school.
It has been the worst 3 years of my life but I will never have to worry about some under-qualified, semi-retarted, butt-muncher controlling my work day. (Can you tell that three years of pent-up frustration distilled from a C curve law school is ready to boil over? lol)
