Lawyers actually do things. You have to listen to the client -but then lawyers do. They don't do what this guys seems to want to do-whine about having chosen the wrong career. I do say good job to him for getting out of a job he seems to have hated. But frankly, my office gets filled with people(colleagues, students...) coming in to tell me their woes -so I don''t find him unique in that sense. And therapist is among my 3 bottom choices for what would be a fun job to have. I have known lawyers who quit to become, among other things, grade school teachers, restauranteers and harley davidson mechanics.
