There's No Competition in Law School: Formal Invitation

I know I'm new here, but I just can't let this opportunity pass us by: Karl Rove, I would like to officially invite you to join us here as a LawBitch.

I understand that you are going to have some free time on your hands, and we would love to engage your perspective here. We're snarky, sassy, disrespectful, and certainly have no respect for the law (well, most of us). You should fit in nicely. We understand that you haven't gone to law school, but you also have the unique perspective to understand what douche-bags most people with law degrees are: think about the Justice Department and most of the Judiciary Committee! We open this forum to you to dish on all those legal-eagles who obviously have to respect for this country and the authoritarian model upon which it is based.

Also, we talk about anal sex a lot. I mean, a LOT. Let us know.

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.
