Keeping Young Lawyers Off The Streets...

Mar 11, 2004 08:07

Things are generally looking up. I haven't nailed down a permanent job just yet, but there are jobs out there to be had. Today is my first day at a short term temporary position I found through an agency. The job isn't really legal, but I can see why they wanted attorneys there to do it. In addition to the money and chance to establish myself at the agency, this job provides an interesting opportunity to check out my competition-- three other unemployed lawyers with comparable experience assigned to the same job. I'm not impressed. They're not dumb or anything, but they throw an unprofessional law-schoolish sort of vibe. I'm fairly confident that I'll land a real job long before these guys do. Temping might be the way to go for me until I get back from the honeymoon.

As I had hoped, I've been able to get a lot done during my unemployment. Lea and I have also been going through the last of our wedding pre-flight checklist items at a good clip. We've got our rings, we're taking desperately needed dancing lessons, we've registered for gifts, set up our tux rentals and dress alterations, and the invites should be going out pretty soon. We still need to pick the song for our first dance, though. Anyone have a suggestion? Right now we're thinking someting by Sinatra...
