Former Co-worker Quit Biglaw w/ $150k Debt
Poast new message in this thread
Date: January 9th, 2015 9:58 AM Author: big nubile tattoo He was otherwise very risk averse. Actually liked the work ok but hated the partners he worked for. One day just quit. Was unemployed for a while but eventually ended up w/ ok inhouse job. His wife was in dental school so he had a possible lifeline down the road but she had debt too.
Just something to think about w/ all these 'net worth' threads |

Date: January 9th, 2015 10:15 AM Author: cobalt indian lodge He sounds spoiled. Seriously. There is no case where this is justified. If they make unreasonable demands he can fail to perform and they can fire him, but that's another scenario and would likely buy him enough time to find something else while still employed.

Date: January 9th, 2015 10:39 AM Author: big nubile tattoo Not something I would do, and although I'm sure he would've eventually been fired for bad attitude, he definitely didn't quit bc he didn't want to be fired.
How does this make him spoiled? |

Date: January 9th, 2015 11:20 AM Author: big nubile tattoo He obviously lost a large amount of money by walking out which is why most people wouldn't do it, but that's a hell of a lot more respectable than job searching on the firms dime like most people do.
