The lawyer said, “Boss, you won’t believe it! I went

                back and they were having a board meeting, and

                I sold them a group policy.”

                I’m a ‘Recovering Lawyer’


                I call myself ‘a recovering lawyer.’


                My office used to get so piled up with stuff I couldn’t

                even find the file I needed to work on.


                I got tired of being referred to as a man who

                earned his living by the sweat of his brow-BEATING.

                But I truly respect lawyers who stay at their job until

                they’re so old they look like dried up prunes.

                It’s said, “Old lawyers never die. They just lose their

                appeal.”


                I got burned out and couldn’t stay in until the bitter

                end. I had to let the law go.


                Law is very stressful — ranked third only behind

                operating room surgeons and policemen on the front

                lines.


                And no wonder it’s so stressful, with all the

                deadlines… the changing laws… changing court
