New Poll!

February 8, 2008 3:03 PM

es, seeing as how it's February, I decided that it was about time to put up a new poll. Unfortunately, I can't tell you the results of the old poll because the website seems to be down. Still, that prompted me to look around for a better poll generator, and I think I found a good one with a better look and interface. Still, I'll let you know if I'm ever able to find out what you guys hate most about the holidays.

In the meantime, the new poll, as suggested by the Expat, asks why you have your particular job. If you have your job for a reason other than the ones I've listed, let me know.

As for me, I chose "I love it." Now, since I'm only on the verge of having a job, I think I have to qualify that answer. See, like I've said, I really didn't want to do criminal law at all. But now that I've had some marginal amount of experience with it, I actually really like it. And I think that I'll only like it more once I start having more serious cases. And I know I'm going to love trying cases, assuming I ever get to do that.

And I also really love the whole thing where I'm my own boss. That's a definite upside to having our own firm. Of course, it's not very lucrative right now. But hopefully that'll change. So, assuming that I'm able to make a decent living doing what I'm doing, I'll be doing what I love, and that's a rare thing.

So what do you guys think?

I know it's sort of related to "The money," but I still think you should add "because bacon ain't free."

i like this poll. interesting. as for me, i voted for "i love it" but i also need to qualify my answer.

i applied to tons of jobs last year. i knew the basics but not a ton about my current job at the time (i skipped out on the idea of practicing law somewhere during my 2L year) i turned a few other jobs down. i began my job by falling ass backwards into it, but i'm still there because i ended up loving it.
