Wise choice. I've known attorneys professionally and have some in my extended family. I've never met a truly happy attorney yet.

- edge17 5y agoI have but they're also professors and they teach so I'm guessing that changes the dynamic a lot.
- rayiner 5y agoI’m a truly happy attorney! So is my wife. But it’s a client service job. I think a lot of Americans suffer from delusions of grandeur, especially more highly educated ones, and the reality of being a cog in the machine really bursts their bubble. I think of myself more like a very skilled tradesman. People need legal representation, just like they need electricians. My trade is intellectually stimulating and highly remunerative, so why shouldn’t I be happy?
