1. Couldn't tell you yet
Still in law school.

I have enjoyed working as a law clerk though.

2. I'm an unemployed schmuck
Have been for over two and a half years now. And not by choice. Since I am totally self-reliant that means that I am rather quickly exhausting a lifetime of savings, and retirement funds. I hate it. And most everything else I see happening in this country.

4. When it's good, it's great...
Even when it sucks, it sucks in interesting ways. And I work with great people. We have a ball.

5. Some of my job can be rewarding..
like when you make a mortgagor feel as if you have helped them save their house. I process foreclosures.

6. Not really
Some of the things I do are pretty much what one would call "the shit job" (literally) , but some of the people I work with are pretty cool, so it kind of evens out that way.

8. I Worked For The Department Of Energy
I retired early this year from the Department of Energy. I had been working in support of the Department of Homeland Security for about a year before leaving. I was an Analyst. It got to where I actually hated the people as much as I hated the place. The rabid support for Bush throughout the managment of the place drove me nuts and the assholes I worked with didn't help a bit. I was never so happy to get away from a place in my life.
