I'm Now Officially An Emplyed Attorney (if anyone cares)

Despite the economy being in the dumps someone was dumb enough to hire me. Anyway I'll be moving to DC (I'd rather stay in NYC but you gotta do whatcha gotta do right?). Even though I'll be working a real job I look forward to continuing to contribute my typos, spelling mistakes and uneducated opinions to this blog. That's all I got.

From one DC lawyer to another, congrats, and welcome to the city. Here's all you need to know about DC (in case you didn't know already):

The Nationals suck, but not as much as the Orioles.

No matter how much everyone hates Dan Snyder, the Redskins have the most devoted fans in the world.

As a Vanderbilt fan, you'll be VERY sick of hearing about Georgetown basketball.

Ben's Chili Bowl is awesome.

The Metro cannot be trusted to get you anywhere on time or in one piece, but it's preferable to sitting on the Beltway.

Did I mention the Nationals suck? Because they really, really do.

If you live in Virginia, you'll turn your nose up at Maryland. If you live in Maryland, you'll turn your nose up at Virginia. If you live in DC, you can turn your nose up at everyone (while paying the equivalent of a mortgage payment to rent a basement studio apartment).

DCist.com is the best DC blog.

Ok, I should get back to work. The law calls!

Congratulations, Douglas, on your great achievement.

For others who think it would be a good idea to follow in Mr. James' footsteps, a somewhat provocative piece: http://questionspresented.wordpress.com/category/education/

As a 3L with no job, I hate you. Prepare to hear the dumbest things ever like, "I see the 'skins as a 10-11 win team this year."

Congrats Doug! Glad to hear things worked out.

If there's one thing DC needs, it's more lawyers. Welcome.

p.s. - Ben's Chili Bowl is incredibly overrated.

DC is glad to have you, Doug.

Also, please note that the TITLE of this post contains a significant spelling error.

Agreed, Ben's Chili Bowl is very overrated. Give me Hard Times over Ben's any day.

Congratulations but I have no idea why anyone would want to be an attorney! Sounds dreadful...

Same reason anyone becomes an attorney: we had nothing better to do.
