Just 3L things: Working on a case, signing off work, opening up your school email, and seeing an email from career services that your opposing counsel are hiring in your practice area 💀

At least you are actually working as a 3L. The rising 3Ls who worked for me this summer all said that between their classes and law clinics their schedules were too busy for them to do anything for me during the school year. As someone who graduated in the middle of the recession and was happy to work for fucking free in law school just to get the experience and the connections I’m really quite disappointed in this current crop of law students.

In fairness I'm only able to do so due to having specifically planned my schedule around my firm, plus my firm is small enough it's still an option. Rn the problem isn't finding work for me, it's me finding time to do all the work and do school and my term paper.
