Hey guys,
So I know it's been nearly a month since my last post. I've been a little busy with this new job so I didn't have the time to go back and check this blog. I guess it's not a bad problem. This gig has been good enough so far. I'm working in a small office. 5 attorneys including me but one of the senior attorneys takes more of a supervisor role. There are also 2 full time legal assistants and one part time legal assistant. My pay is alright. It's definitely not what I was expecting to make when I entered law school years ago but I can't complain considering the joblessness journey I've endured. Even saltine crackers taste great when you've been starving for so long. The work I do gets a little hectic but some days are simple. I guess they're giving the new guy the brunt work or it probably just feels like it when you're new. Anyway, I'll try to keep adding more posts and let you all know about my life!
Good to hear all's well! What field of law is your practice now? I hear yah on the pay front, but like you, I can't really complain. Better employed than unemployed. Was wondering, how are your student loans (if any)? - FJD
ReplyDeleteHey FJD! The office mainly practices criminal law and employment law (plaintiff). I think one attorney does bankruptcy too but I'm not sure. I'm handling more criminal matters but I'm learning some of the employment stuff too. My student loans are will be with more for a long time. Luckily, I moved back home after graduation so I don't have much to spend. However, most of my pay goes to my student loans. Looks like I'll be paying money for several, several years.
