I know. I did the whole backpack through Europe thing. Of course now I realize how clueless I was about the whole process. Full disclosure my dad has a small firm in Shreveport but I may rather be a plumber than move back there.

If you crushed it 1L year (top 10%) you should have had two interniships lined up for your 2L summer easily. If you did and didn't get offers then you either chose poorly or they didn't like you.

The bar study loan has nothing on the study abroad loans financial aid tries to talk you into taking out each summer. My favorite were the yankees who were already close to six figures in debt from small liberal arts undergrad. They took out every loan they could during law school and graduated 200+.

And are now begging for loan forgiveness. The liberal mindset is sickening.

Looking more and more likely, but our relationship is shall i say complicated. Will take some pride swallowing to work together every day.

Query, when that plumber has a customer not pay them or gets injured on the job, who is the first person they are going to call? I'll hang up and listen.


When a lawyer goes home and finds shite backed up and coming out of the shower drain who is the first person they are going to call?

Thank you for your impeccable timing...two weeks after most of us got those loans. Also, I need to eat.

NO is full of them, 200 to 300k in debt without a pot to piss in, but I really tip my cap to the ones from Tulane and Loyola who steer clear of the code courses and cant pass the LA bar, smart.

If we advertise for a phone monkey I'll get 100 resumes from lawyers.
