If you are considering becoming a lawyer or an attorney, think twice, particularly if you are thinking big corporate law firm... it is not worth it. Realistically, do you think all this exists just for the fun of it. Law firms, more importantly, partners are more prone to side with a client ($$) than with an associate. So, long hours, and by long hours I am talking about 60+, 70+ or 80+ (billable) a week, aren't a worry... quite the contrary more billables!
Working like a dog is not a bad thing; working like a dog at remedial tasks, say, running redlines or sitting at your desk late at night waiting for clients in case they need something is a waste. Moreso when law firms are equipped to handle these tasks with less qualified (i.e., non-legal degree) persons employed for such administrative tasks.
I AM FED UP WITH THIS SHIT.
