the life of roosterjuicer

[roosterjuicer]

Well I'm sure you guys (especially henk) have been missing me so I thought I would say hi and give an update. I have been very busy I got married in may and honeymooned in st lucia...dont ever go there there are much better places in the area.

I did really well my first year of law school but I am now paying the price in the form of a very demanding job at a great firm! Its tough but I am getting tons of experience in lots of different areas... Except estate planning which is what I want to do of course haha. But I'm putting in about 55 hours a week but making good money so its not that bad. But I dont get much time to bs on here, maybe once school starts again.

How's everyone doing here? What have I missed?

Btw, my parents have ordered a camaro ss I will review it as soon as they get it so probably a few months

[clutch-monkey]

lol my uni campus is at a st lucia

[IBrake4Rainbows]

Psst, Clutch.

I think he means the tropical Island....

[LTSmash]

Congrats on the marriage!

You haven't missed much except for the usual UCP banter... and a few new obnoxious members. ;)

What kind of law are we talking here?

[cargirl1990]

awww you got married?!?!? thats wonderful! i hope you and your wife have a long and happy life together! best wishes as a fellow UCP member. your parents are lucky roosterjuicer. a Camaro SS... i hope for the specs on that gorgeuos car! :D :)

[wwgkd]

Assorted randomness, especially from the aussie crowd. New cars, new car review formats. Nothing earth shaking. Congrats on the marriage. Are you going to steal the Camaro or are your parents keeping it to themselves?

[Zytek_Fan]

Let's see you and the misses.

[whiteballz]

Congrats rooster. Good to hear your keeping busy.

[henk4]

I love Americans;)

[Roentgen]

Congrats on the fine life you've been living through! Just a note on the upcoming review on the Camaro SS though... something fiset will know a lot about! Watch JC's review of the Ford Fiesta on TG, and that is the new review format of UCP!

rofl rofl rofl rofl.

you name it. Ive done workers comp stuff on both sides, unemployment law on the workers side, civil rights stuff on both sides, personal injury on both sides, just kinda random torts on both sides, bankruptcy on the side of the bankrupt person, products liability on the plaintiff's side and even a little criminal stuff.

i've been thinking I want to do estate planning and wills and trusts but i havent had the chance to do that yet in the real world

thats alota crap that you have to deal with. im not saying that your choice of employment is a bad one, its just the things your willing to deal with. don't get me wrong here.

That's what happens when you go 85 in a 35.
When will you learn?

he has only had 1 year of law school... a long ways from being a practicing attorney.

exactly, all I do is do research and write stuff that the attorneys sign their names on. I am quite a ways away from doing pro bono work. Although one of the partners made me go take pictures of him while he did pro bono work :D

maybe if the founding fathers of the countries in this world didn't intentionally write laws that are so convoluded in wording, law school wouldnt have to take another 4 years AFTER college.

it's the lawyers that have made the law complicated. If it would be easy they would have been without a job. (a 10% increase in the US unemployment levels;))

[roosterjuicer]

First of all, its 3 years. second of all, yes it is very convoluted but thats just the law and to be honest, the constitution is just a small amount of the law, its mostly state statutes that most lawyers work with...which are really jacked up

[cargirl1990]

are you going to be the " Give me all the money you have " kind of lawyer, or are you going to be the " Give me as much money as you can afford " kind of lawyer?

[blingbling]

but thats just the lawgotcha
