Date: April 11th, 2014 9:50 PM Author: pea-brained aggressive national I have a friend who went to a legit TTTT and he's been in ID for 2 years. I asked him how it's going and he says he's been "looking to go in-house" and "hopes to make the jump soon". How can you be an attorney and be so clueless about your own job market.

But probably better hours. I've seen a fair number of these openings so it might be more common than you think. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2541643&forum_id=2#25369021) |

Date: April 11th, 2014 9:57 PM Author: duck-like feces I've also seen small ID firms that have insurance company email addresses. So an attorney's email address at the firm is joe_shitlaw@geico.com.

Date: April 11th, 2014 9:59 PM Author: pea-brained aggressive national Trust me he doesn't mean at an insurance company. This guy is clueless. And the only jobs insurance companies hire attorneys for at his level are to use in lieu of hiring outside counsel. So you basically do the exact same job for even less money.

I got out of law and went into another field with through the roof QOL, but he literally can't understand why I left. He does ID. Has been at his current place less than 2 years and is one of the seniors at this point. Literally an ID mill and he comes from one of the historic TTTTs.

Date: April 11th, 2014 10:12 PM Author: Soul-stirring Tanning Salon Pistol I work in a niche field and deal with TTTs who copped in-house gigs at major national/multinational corps a lot more often than I would have anticipated. Every single one of them has been mouth-breathing-level retarded.
The biglaw partners/ex-biglaw inhouse folks I deal with can at least string together a coherent argument. |

He don’t put a bolt to a nut, he don’t tell you the truth or give you medicine. He’s a man way out their in the blue riding on a smile and a shoeshine. And when they start not smiling back- that’s an earthquake. And then you get yourself a couple spots on your hat and your finished. Nobody dast blame this man.
