baron8000 Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 Currently the plan is complete law degree -> become lawyer -> become barrister After barrister, not a clue, judge is always a possibility, and I wouldn't be adverse to becoming a Law Lord one day Tough job nowadays man, any idea where you want to work? The city is hell for law, but some people enjoy it. Well luckily because I'm at Oxford the law firms are practically fighting each other to get us on board as soon as possible - hopefully I'll join one of the inns of court as soon as possible (hopefully the inner temple) and eventually join the Bar and in fact we have a presentation by them pretty soon (despite being in our 4th week of Law :lol: ) As to place, London would be excellent but I'm not sure about the strain - also so far constitutional law (sovereignty, separation of powers, doctrines of law that kind of thing) is probably my favourite topic so I may even end up working in Europe (the ECJ or ECHR possibly). But this is a very early stage :lol: not even a term in yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That sounds pretty interesting. Probably less stressful than commerical law. "Da mihi castitatem et continentam, sed noli modo" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baron8000 Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 @ Assassin, yeah Oxford and Cambridge graduates get poached as soon as possible pretty much. Constitutional Law is pretty complex as well (especially with all the EU directives and other more intricate parts becoming more important). Having a tutor who actually used to write multi-national litigation helps though :wink:. I can't speak for commercial law yet as I'm currently studying Constit. and Criminal but Criminal is great fun - this weeks lectures have been all about murder law though, some pretty grim stuff. Thinking about tutors and things I wouldn't be averse to becoming a lecturer/tutor at university - my tutor (Pavlos Eleftheriadis if you want to look him up) seems pretty happy in his job at least.

Is this your first year studying law? If so cling on to the memories of the fun of criminal law and even constitutional law. Soon they will be wiped away with things like tort. Is it not correct that after a law degree you will join the Bar. Whats this stage of "laywer" that is in your plan? Anyway, i am studying Politics & Philosophy, so i will either rule you or write about you - or neither. With so many trees in the city you could see the spring coming each day until a night of warm wind would bring it suddenly in one morning. Sometimes the heavy cold rains would beat it back so that it would seem that it would never come and that you were losing a season out of your life. But you knew that there would always be the spring as you knew the river would flow again after it was frozen. When the cold rains kept on and killed the spring, it was as though a young person had died for no reason. In those days though the spring always came finally but it was frightening that it had nearly failed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The plan isnt really set in stone or anything, being a barrister is the end goal at the moment though but I don't really know. Politics ruling law? Ha, long live the power of judicial review and the convention of separation of powers (bear in mind I'm just starting, so I may be wrong). Have you studied law as well?

Ha, long live the power of judicial review and the convention of separation of powers (bear in mind I'm just starting, so I may be wrong). Have you studied law as well? Who has the ability to propose new bills? MP's. Who has the ability to pass bills? MP's (and if you have a majority, very easily). Who has some crappy four year veto ability and then can do jack all? The House Of Lords. Granted, MP's are very crude in their drafting and writing of Bills, so indeed long live judicial review. However the power always rests in the elected. The reason why i mentioned the Laywer thing i because in England we do not have Laywers, we only have Solicitors and Barristers. Even though the Thatcher government distorted the lines between their abilitys a little, we're still quite far from having the two combined.

das1330 Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 Well I would like to go and bet a good job as an executive in a large company, and eventually when I had a good amount of money banked, go into Politics. Being a senator or house Rep seems like it would be both an extremely interesting, and an extremely boring job. Lots of variety. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trapical Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 Work as a research operative for the C.D.C (Center for Disease Control) You work in a lab wearing one of those white spacesuits handing diseases that can kill you in less than 24 hours. If there is an outbreak of a some bad disease somewhere you get on a private government jet with the rest of your co-workers and you fly out there immediately. You arrive in some dangerous part of the third world and with a military escort arrive at the local village, form a quarantine and try to save the lives of those infected. It's a pretty sweet deal, I mean imagine going to work knowing that you might be eating lunch in Kenya that day. A friend of my microbiology professor had the job and he said he would be in his office and a co-worker pops his head in the door and says "Wanna go to Egypt? There is a TB outbreak... the helicopter in the parking lot leaves in 5 minites." The next day people would be saying in the breakroom "Yea, we got shot at again, had to call in an Apache to secure the ridge before we went in. Made it back in time for the game though, can't believe the Yankee's won" The job has it all, danger, excitement, travel, and you get to save people's lives.

speedofsound Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 My dream job is to be a astronaut bounty hunter. You can't ever find a place that's nice and peaceful, because there isn't any. You may think there is, but once you get there, when you're not looking, somebody'll sneak up and write "(bleep) you" right under your nose. Try it sometime. I think, even, if I ever die, and they stick me in a cemetery, and I have a tombstone and all, it'll say "Holden Caulfield" on it, and then what year I was born and what year I died, and then right under that it'll say "(bleep) you."

xXru1n3dXx Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 Done before: http://forum.tip.it/viewtopic.php?t=613132 I have quite a few. - Working as a scientist at Area 51 has been one of mine for a couple of years now. - Working at the Cheyenne Mountain complex would also be cool, but it's no longer in use anyway. - Being a UFOlogist, hell it could even happen. - An Astronaut has always been appealing, as I love space. - An AFP Agent. - Lately being a pilot has sounded quite cool, but I don't like the pressure that quite a few people depend on me getting them to there location in complete safety. - I don't know why, but a stock broker has also sound appealing, as I like commerce. Too bad the first two options you would most likely have to be American anyway. Air traffic controller would be the only addition since I posted that.
