Unhappy Meal: Little Thanks For Law In The Holiday Leftovers

Unhappy Meal

The festivities have prevented me from diving fully enough into this post from Law and Letters, "Why you shouldn't go to law school," and its active comment thread, but I do love this line: "'Thinking like a lawyer' is a bug, not a feature."

Should Mr. Gowder fail to convince you of the uber-toxic caliber of dissatisfaction in the legal field (that's "in," not even "with"!), don your flak jacket, stay well under cover, and peruse the comments to David Lat's innocent enough see-you-after-Thanksgiving post, which offhandedly invited folks to "bemoan [their] fate" in the comments if they happened to be working through the holiday.
