So much interesting info. Tom, we’ll have to agree to disagree on the CLE’s - as well as, in my view - the entirely bleak view of the legal profession. I definitely see some of the negatives you’ve mentioned in practice, but I also see (as blossom noted) attorneys in mid-sized firms earning good salaries, taking vacations, and (to some degree) enjoying their work.

I can’t agree that what lawyers do doesn’t seem to matter (‘not heart surgery’). I’ve been fortunate (I believe) that my work (in collaboration w/others) has impacted many - and my friends who create estate plans, help people buy houses, facilitate changes in the law to benefit thousands - their work has touched people in man;y positive ways (and they are good, caring people - not superficial folks out to impress others).
