BTW, I am already working and making 63K. <br /><br />What I mean about your advice being "generally" good advice, is that the idea of saying you want to change careers will be credible for some, not so credible for others. There are a LOT of variables in this, such as:<br /><br />1) Length of time you've been working as an attorney (too long might work against you)<br /><br />2) Whether you'll be working among people who are likely to be put off or threatened by your law degreeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19584611.post-27949544187519897482009-06-22T00:36:10.529-04:002009-06-22T00:36:10.529-04:00"having a JD can be just as much of a liabili..."having a JD can be just as much of a liability as an asset."<br /><br />Have you actually tried applying for jobs that don't require a JD? They'll hire you if they think you'll stay. So put something in your cover letter about how you want to change professions or whatever.<br /><br />Also, it's not that hard to find a job as an attorney paying 50K or so at entry level. After 6 months you should be at 60K or so.<br /><br />Quit wallowing and get over yourselves. It's not that hard to find a job, but it does take some effort and having to deal with a little rejection.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19584611.post-29015109942434946772009-06-21T23:41:58.399-04:002009-06-21T23:41:58.399-04:0011:18

There is no ...Better Coder is more real than fake.<br /><br />There is no big reason to believe the guy is a fraud. What is a fraud is when people come on here attacking someone who is successful at what he does, and has the temerity to talk about it.<br /><br />My personal opinion of BC is that the story is essentially real, although he might be exaggerating certain details around the edges, just for effect.<br /><br />People who come on here attacking the guy are doing so out of one motivation only: JEALOUSY. <br /><br />They simply cannot deal with the fact that there are people out there who are more successful (or more lucky) than they are.<br /><br />Actually with BC, it's probably something like 20% talent and skill, and 80% luck. <br /><br />The guy has no law school debts and two trust funds, so he could relax and make decisions calmly after graduating from law school, instead of accepting the first shitlaw job offer he got would have landed him in a hellhole.<br /><br />Obviously his grades weren't good enough to land him a BigLaw job, but he made the most of his situation. He liked the NYC lifestyle enough to not want to move out to suburbia or some second-rate, smaller and less competitive job market.<br /><br />He stayed in NYC, accepted coding jobs, worked long hours and got in good with the agencies.<br /><br />He got in at the right time, when coding jobs were still plentiful -- I mean before the bad economy hit.<br /><br />Even when firms and agencies pared down and cut back, the coding jobs didn't disappear altogether. This guy stuck with it and persevered and got on the "A" list.<br /><br />Why should people begrudge the guy if he knows the game, got in at the right time, puts in an honest day's work, and likes to live it up a bit in his downtime? That's just normal behavior.<br /><br />I mean, the guy knows his limitations. He's not coming on here and saying he's an 18 karat gold associate with BigLaw or anything. He's a coder, he's not whining about it, and he's making the best of his situation.<br /><br />I say "more power" and "props" to the guy.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19584611.post-25394482253147936052009-06-21T20:44:48.777-04:002009-06-21T20:44:48.777-04:00Better Coder was originally a fry cook at Better B...Better Coder was originally a fry cook at Better Burger. One day they asked him to deliver an order to a law firm in midtown. <br /><br />He saw all of the people lined up by the computers, clicking at the e-mails on the screen. They ordered by seamless web and received their meals for free, courtesy of the firm. Better Coder desperately wanted to leave the frying area and become one of the chosen, a doc reviwer.<br /><br />So, much like the fake architect Wayne in "Something About Mary", Better Coder invented a glamorous, but fictional career for himself.<br /><br />Sadly, Better Coder is no longer a fry cook at Better Burger, he got fired for stealing credit card numbers and cell phone numbers from actual document review attorneys. He took his fantasy too far and tried to steal the identity of actual DRAs.<br /><br />So all of the meals at Nobu and other fancy joints are being charged to a real DRA's credit card. He's living a lie.<br /><br />Watch out for Better Coder, he's a fraud!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
