Re: One Law Firm Is Asking Law Grads To PAY For The Chance To Work
Employers would like nothing better than have slaves work for free or pay the employer to be a employee.

When I was in tech school going for a degree back in 2003 several instructors came on to the class with employers feel they pay taxes for the school and students should work for free at these employers for at least 1 year.

I go absolutely not as did other students. The teacher was told to ask the students how they felt about this and would they do it. No one would.

I said, these employers pay taxes but we pay tuition and no student should be asked to work for free. Fuck employers was what went around in my mind.

The gall of employers looking to take advantage of people working and paying for a degree to be employed. I soon realized the employers in the community were communicating shit to the school about students and instructors were communicating back character of students looking for jobs with these employers.

I realized that employers were asking the instructors who was a good choice for employment and who was not. Than a instructor had the balls to tell his class if you want a job in this field you have to be with his teaching technique.

What bullshit this became. I felt the future drop from under me as these fucking employers and instructors were hand picking who gets jobs.

Later I found out the employers who demanded positions be filled by associates degree employees, changed those same positions a year later to be filled by bachelor degreed employess.

The fuckers had a scam going to keep the school filled with students reach ever higher for another step up the ladder of degrees and profit. Still employers thought the students should work for free.

FUCK THIS WORLD.

Re: One Law Firm Is Asking Law Grads To PAY For The Chance To Work
Aw!! Good! Let the eventual lawyers and other horrible people of the Legal System get at least SOME of the brunt that's facing the rest of America! So many of y'all have been so goddamn arrogant and acting so superior to all other non Legal types. It's about time y'all be forced to cash a reality check. While you're pissed about this injustice, the rest of the injustices are happening to the rest of us non stop. To help keep your head from returning to the foul recesses of your ass, OP and all other Legal people here, be happy this shit's happening to y'all. Be VERY happy about it! Rejoice in the fact that you've learned the hard truth that we're all in this insanity together. When my mom was working as a Clerk for IBC/Hostess before IBC went belly up, my mom and her coworkers had to pay over a hundred goddamn dollars a WEEK for the previledge to work at Hostess AND to pay for corrupt Union stuff when her thrift store wasn't part of the Hostess Union! You think you Legal bunch think you're having it hard now? Oh well, baby! Everyone else has been getting the lubeless ass fisting and rape while you public and private leeches were busy finding NEW ways to suck what little life this country has left. So yeah, let this be a good lesson to you Legal types: Karma's a bitch.

Re: One Law Firm Is Asking Law Grads To PAY For The Chance To Work
Then each student should change majors to law - form study groups - have each student in each group pay a one time fee to join group - use fee to license a business to protect each students assets and study hard on how to sue the individuals and corporations involved in this deceit.

In other words - do something with your life you are passionate about - the money will follow.

Instead of accepting yourself as the bottom with other people who are no better to you playing master.

This is how the system comes down - when individuals start acting like individuals instead of allowing others to herd them into slavery.

Instead of going into deep debt (slavery) for an education--working for someone for free to learn a trade seems a good idea.

Salaries will continue to fall and the future will have people living in groups as a two income family no longer will be able to afford the american dream.

Extended family, two or three couples living under one roof, thank you "global economy".

Re: One Law Firm Is Asking Law Grads To PAY For The Chance To Work
There is work for law grads just have to get to know people, so donating time would work. Offer to help judges for free is a good start. Judges would know who needs help and where the work is, they seem to be in the "know". However, I wouldn't pay thats just stupid.

Well the soulless little fuckers went into a vocation whose job description is "steal and fuck everyone over", so this is a very fitting first job for them, getting stolen from and fucked over.

They should start out working pro bono and that would allow them to practice until a job comes along.

Work for free? I say help the people instead of being some corporations ' slave.

There are many many out there who could use services for free ( for now, anyway)
SPEAK UP. SILENCE IS DEADLY!
