There's No Competition in Law School: I'm on vacation

Here I am, on vacation. While my compatriots are of galavanting on the beach, I am at the condo working on my OCI shit. Well sort of working, I'm actually wasting time and posting. I will have a better update sometime next week, with pictures, once Calculating shows me how to make a post with multiple pictures in it (computer literate I am not).

Although I knew I had to do the OCI stuff at some point, it still doesn't make it any better that I am on vacation.

We Came. We Were Snarky. We Disbanned.

The short story: we blogged pretty voraciously while in law school until halfway through our 3L year when law school drama interceded. We abruptly shut down, fearing exposure that would impact our full-time employment options.

Sometimes, there is, unfortunately, no humor in law school or the legal profession.

That was years ago. Since then, we're all gainfully employed. Of the LawBitches, one is a partner and two others are associates in small firms, two are solo practitioners, one works for the government, one is an in-house counsel, one work in non-traditional job in corporate America, and two are also adjunct professors at a law school.

The point is: we all survived. But if you ask us if we're happy? Or if we'd do it over again? Well, you'd get differing responses.

The bottom line: Before you decide to go to law school, be aware -- be very aware -- of what you are getting yourself into.
