Hmmm. You have me beat. I've been a waitress, a bartender, a dental assistant, a surgical assistant in labor and delivery (babies), a social worker, a lithographer, a bookbinder, and a lawyer. Not to mention mother, that doesn't actually seem like work, no matter what people say.
Hmmm. I can draft complaints, interrogatories, requests for production, requests for admission, contracts, deeds, wills, bankruptcy petitions, trademark applications, appellate briefs, bid protests, etc. I can negotiate, arbitrate, mediate, and try cases before juries, judges, and administrative bodies.
Doesn't seem nearly as impressive as operating heavy machinery or constructing a house but it generally seems to pay better. Lawyers never get their hands dirty (speaking literally, not figuratively) and rarely are in risk of losing their lives. Go figure. |
