    Seriously, Robert Half (and its client) needs half its ass* beat, the other half kicked. Who can afford to pay rent, utilities, and law loans on this sorry salary? When you add food, clothing and transportation, its nearly impossible. And forget about dating. Can you say default? But I know my law school will say I am employed if I took such a job. i would be better off working at Walmart or Kmart. This is it-I'm out-I'm not even trying to work in the legal industry at all anymore. This sucks ass*.

    I know shitlaw receptionists that make more than $12 an hour. No JD or over a $100K in nondischargeable student loans needed either to make paltry wages. Fuck, I pay my landscapper $15 per hour to mow my lawn. Robert Half is just plain shameful in my opinion.

    The worst part is the "required document review experience." I mean seriously, the market is that bad that people that have been doing this for awhile would even consider this?

    This is the type of job posting local TTT law schools should be jumping on to urge their grads who were defecated, I mean graduated, this past May to consider. We are still within 9 months of Graduation Day 2010 and the 90% plus employment rates need to be sustained. If you borrowed $150K to go to law school and earn $12/hr, your grand kids could finish paying off your student loans.

    An "auto detailer," which is someone that washes, waxes and shines rims on cars makes $18/hr at the local luxury car dealership. For the most part, these are kids that are 18-early 20s making close to $40K (not including tips which can add another $10K) a year just to detail cars. No bachelors, no law degree required. I find it fucking ironic whenever I see a young lawyer who is struggling to make the lease payments on his 3 series BMW while making $35K a year for a shitlaw attorney getting his car detailed by someone that makes more than him. The experience is almost like seeing a big NYC sewer rat munch on a cat's corpse.

    In the mid eighties, during the height of the crack epidemic in New York, I was solicited by an emaciated crack whore on 9th Ave. She wanted to blow me for three dollars. I thought "wow ... imagine sinking that low in life. How does that happen? What a tragedy. I mean ... three fucking dollars!!!???"

    In 2010, 25 years later, attorneys are accepting as little as $12/hr for reviewing documents for multi-billion dollar multinational corporations at the the world's most "prestigious" law firms.

    OK, say the 3 dollar blowjob lasts 10 minutes. Six blowjobs in an hour is 18 dollars per hour ... and it"s tax free. And better still .... no staff attorneys, no paralegals, partners, or support staff treating you with less respect than a that crack whore I met. What's a better deal? Hey ... and you get to make your own hours blowing people on the street ...

    Some of the least paid people on projects are the biggest nerds and wear suit and tie to the "job." The old timers complain about taxi service and bennies.

    People laugh about hooking for a living. But when I worked for a solo practitioner he had his hands and other body parts all over us, and ordered us to get him some "fixin's" and a beer. The secretary was pregnant apparently with his love child. He had his paws over the community chest of every divorcee client. He said it was part of the pay package to get "sugar booty".
    Having this greasy bear on top of me after hours for what he called "play time" after a "hard day at the office" was, I now realize, better than temping.
    I don't say I am so great looking now but I wasn't bad back in the day, plenty of guys were interested.
    Working for a solo practioner in Brooklyn was the same as hooking but you know what? It's better than being pushed around and constantly threatened by the agency bitches, plus I got paid more.

    Open Letter to Interim Dean Brown
    SUBMITTED BY BCLAWSTUDENT OCT 15, 2010 19 COMMENTS

    George D. Brown
    Interim Dean
    Boston College Law School
    885 Centre Street
    Newton Centre, MA 02459

    Dear Dean Brown,

    I hope this letter finds you well. I want to start by thanking you for serving as the interim Dean. I know that it is always difficult to step into a situation at the last minute, but we are all thankful for your leadership.

    Unfortunately, the occasion for me writing to you is not a happy one. As a 3L, my peers and I find ourselves in the midst of one of the worst job markets in the history of our profession. A few of us have been able to find employment, but the overwhelming majority of us are desperately looking, and unable to find anything. We are discouraged, scared, and in many cases, feeling rather hopeless about our chances of ever getting to practice law.

    To compound our difficulties, many of us are in an enormous amount of debt from our legal studies. Soon after our graduation, we will be asked to make very large monthly payments towards this debt, regardless of whether we’ve been able to find employment or not. It is a debt which, despite being the size of a mortgage, gives us no tangible asset which we could try to sell or turn in to the bank. We are not even able to seek the protection of bankruptcy from this debt.

    I write to you from a more desperate place than most: my wife is pregnant with our first child. She is due in April. With fatherhood impending, I go to bed every night terrified of the thought of trying to provide for my child AND paying off my J.D, and resentful at the thought that I was convinced to go to law school by empty promises of a fulfilling and remunerative career. And although my situation puts the enormity of the problem into sharp focus, there are a lot of us facing similar financial disasters. In all of this, we have had very little help from career services, who all seem to be as confounded as we are by this job market. Kate Devlin Joyce has been an amazing and helpful ally; everyone else in that office has shrugged their shoulders at us and asked if we have tried using Linkedin.

    I’d like to propose a solution to this problem: I am willing to leave law school, without a degree, at the end of this semester. In return, I would like a full refund of the tuition I’ve paid over the last two and a half years.

    This will benefit both of us: on the one hand, I will be free to return to the teaching career I left to come here. I’ll be able to provide for my family without the crushing weight of my law school loans. On the other hand, this will help BC Law go up in the rankings, since you will not have to report my unemployment at graduation to US News. This will present no loss to me, only gain: in today’s job market, a J.D. seems to be more of a liability than an asset. I will explain the gap in my resume by simply saying that I attended law school, but was unable to finish for financial reasons. In the short run, refunding my tuition might present a financial challenge to the law school, but in the long run, better US News rankings will help you far more than having yet another disgruntled and unemployed alumnus.

    I would love to discuss this proposal with you further. I would also love to hear any other thoughts or solutions you may have. Thanks very much for your time, and I look forward to speaking with you.

    Best regards,

    [Name redacted]

    And do YOU really care about how "difficult" his job is? Sounds like you just want a fair opportunity to pay your bills and feed your on-the-way kid, simple desires that BC can't (or won't) help you manifest.

The pass rate of New York bar is 80% over and you can take as many times as you want so effective passing is 100%. Idiots from the third world who can barely speak English and speak ooga-booga can pass this test of life.

    Let me review. It is a serious job for serious people. You can get fired for pushing the wrong button or missing priv. Priv. requires an even higher IQ like Einstein.

    Let me get on with my job.

    $12 per hour is the rate they pay offshore Indian "attorneys".

    Thank WTO and free trade! It has really panned out for the middle class.

    From the Slate article:

    Students simply "cannot earn enough income after graduation to support the debt they incur," wrote Richard Matasar, the dean of New York Law School, in 2005. "Even those making the highest salaries find that the debt that they have accumulated while in school may tax them for years."

    ***This doesn't stop Tricky Dick Matasar from also serving as chairman of Access Group student loan company, which happily gives six-figure student loans to people who wouldn't have "access" to law school otherwise.

    I must say, it takes skill to talk from both sides of your mouth....

    There's only one way to deal with these buttholes - bombard them with fake resumes. If every unemployed lawyer sends 20 fake resumes per day, these guys will have to shut down. They simply won't be able to keep up.

    @ 5:02 - scary stuff.

    I visited a law school in my city and was amazed to see so many law students. The place was packed to the gills. I also went to a large LSAC forum and was really blown away by the number of law schools present. I suppose that anyone who really wants a JD and has passable grades and LSAT score can get one (?).


    I decided to pursue Certified Public Accounting. I already
    have a humanities MA and found that it is more of a liability without careful planning of how to explain why I
    don't want to teach Esoteric Subject X. And as an adjunct
    college instructor who wants to leave teaching - it is
    enough of a challenge to try to reinvent myself.

    Granted, accounting, like law (didn't know that until I read the posts) can be outsourced, but hopefully, I can find a good internship or job that will help me along.

    20 years ago I shoveled shit when I was in college - never needed a gym membership, was healthy and stress free (animals can only shit so much each day)...and went home with cash every week. I'm thinking of writing my book, "All I needed to know about corporate life I learned shoveling shit."

    And about RH - I have been to Robert Half so many times and met their "half dimwit" recruiters (Sorry, but this has been 100% of my job search experience with them) and they can NEVER find me in their database - which has been in use for about 30 years. But if you find someone that knows how to use a database, they will find my resumes in there dating back to 1994!

    Oh come now, let's be honest. Most temp attorneys that I have had the displeasure of sitting in a room with search the web/facebook most of the day, eat, disappear for hours at a time on the clock, are inexperienced and often, quite frankly the bottom of the barrel in law school achievement, and moreover, have very little work ethic if any at all. There are also strange cabals of foreign lawyers, orthodox jews with strange schedules and in general weirdos on the job.

  103. If you are facing a criminal charge, it’s paramount that you defend your rights. The best way to defend your rights is by hiring a reputable criminal defense Israeli attorney. The defense attorney will identify vital pre-trial issues and prepare appropriate motions that will be of considerable help in your defense. The Israeli attorney will also thoroughly research your case and find any fault lines that will work to your advantage. When hiring a defense Israeli attorney, you should do ample research to identify an ideal attorney with the right experience and whom you will find comfortable to talk to.
