Date: March 22nd, 2018 12:49 AM Author: Spruce Parlor They've all have 5+ yrs relevant experience and I just have raw intellect and a useless law degree. What a nightmare. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3925341&forum_id=2#35658928) |
Date: March 22nd, 2018 12:54 AM Author: Impertinent casino regret Sounds awful. Any exit strategy? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3925341&forum_id=2#35658949) |

Date: March 22nd, 2018 1:14 AM Author: Spruce Parlor thanks for indulging me.
lolno. i got promoted after 1 yr and anticipate getting promoted every year for the next 2-3 years if i work hard but i don't see any good exit options except death or maybe another economic crisis.
how's your life? |

Going pretty well other than crippling loneliness |

Date: March 22nd, 2018 1:20 AM Author: Spruce Parlor baristas are on their feet all day... and have no personal space behind that tiny ass counter. seems shitty. plus, i'd probably have to move back in with my parents which would be shameful.

Date: March 22nd, 2018 1:18 AM Author: cerebral poppy rigor ljl, if you cannot secure yourself permanent employment, plus horseshit gov benefits, you are truly stupid.
do you work more or less than 5 hours a week? |
|
Date: March 22nd, 2018 1:23 AM Author: Spruce Parlor ? i'm employed. it comes in waves since we're in a pretty active industry and my bosses are all unnecessarily aggressive and enjoy exercising their authority ie shitting on people.
i honestly don't understand what drives them. it's not like they get paid extra to be extra dicks. |

Date: March 22nd, 2018 1:25 AM Author: cerebral poppy rigor confirmed troll poast.
no govt agency is ever "active" |

|
Date: March 22nd, 2018 1:30 AM Author: Spruce Parlor agreed but i don't give a shit about the industry. learning the finer points and nuances is excruciating. i often find myself looking around at my coworkers wondering how can they care about such mundane shit and do this day in day out without questioning their own existence. the life of a glorified bureaucrat is meaningless and monotonous. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3925341&forum_id=2#35659065) |
|
Date: March 22nd, 2018 1:33 AM Author: Racy fiercely-loyal tanning salon circlehead Why don’t you just give less of a shit because you’re likely not going to get fired and then enjoy your life outside of work. Is the job even that demanding? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3925341&forum_id=2#35659076) |

|
Date: March 22nd, 2018 1:40 AM Author: Spruce Parlor two weeks out of the month it is and it's more exaggerated because my boss is a go-getter. dude climbed to a spot in 5 yrs what normally takes 10-15 yrs. he's taken it upon himself to "engage" me and "challenge" me despite the fact that i do good work. he probably doesn't like seeing me coast. what an asshole.

Date: March 22nd, 2018 1:52 AM Author: Racy fiercely-loyal tanning salon circlehead Would he actually fire you tho? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3925341&forum_id=2#35659142) |
|
Date: March 22nd, 2018 2:01 AM Author: Spruce Parlor no, but he could impede my advancement or just make me dread my day to day. it's definitely not even half as stressful as biglaw but i also don't get paid biglaw money. i also find myself questioning my existence as a paperchurning bureaucrat on a daily basis.

Give less of a shit about my job

Date: March 22nd, 2018 2:15 AM Author: French Light Bawdyhouse Filthpig you have a JD and work in a regulator's shop
move into the reg writing division then cop a niche firm/consulting gig, you could actually strive and make this into $$$$$ |
|
Date: March 22nd, 2018 2:34 AM Author: Spruce Parlor regs are written by lobbyists and legislators (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3925341&forum_id=2#35659296) |
|
Date: March 22nd, 2018 2:39 AM Author: French Light Bawdyhouse Filthpig you're missing the point here
they influence it, but there are govt bros who publish and write them, so you're connected to the lobbyists meaning there are exit options here
also legislators do not write regs, that's sort of the point |
|
Date: March 22nd, 2018 2:50 AM Author: Spruce Parlor advisors in the legislators office or some lobbying firm? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3925341&forum_id=2#35659326) |

Date: March 22nd, 2018 2:29 AM Author: Spruce Parlor went from general shitlaw and contract attorney to regulator in completely unrelated field. most of my coworkers have advanced degrees in said field though there are several attorneys like me who couldn't cop dat good firm job in the private sector and landed in here with me.

best if you channel it as motivation to move up the ladder |

Date: March 23rd, 2018 1:38 AM Author: Spruce Parlor Now if you're feelin' kinda low 'bout the dues you've been paying Future's coming much too slow And you want to run but somehow you just keep on stayin' Can't decide on which way to go
I understand about indecision But I don't care if I get behind People livin' in competition All I want is to have my peace of mind
Now you're climbin' to the top of the company ladder Hope it doesn't take too long Can'tcha you see there'll come a day when it won't matter Come a day when you'll be gone |
