So are you going to law school or in college as a prelaw student...or is that just a way to explain what you do?

I make springs and wire forms for a living. It is an interesting job that has challenges; one thing kinda bad and good is traveling to go to auctions, though it is sad to see people lose so much as of recently. In the past it was interesting because you might see something and get a good deal on it, but now you may not bid against other companies that are going to use the machines, maybe a used machinery dealer or in some cases you bid against the scrap man is your competitor. Manufacturing needs to return to America, it is the best way to grow and sustain new job growth in this country. If manufacturing continues to decline then other sectors will continue to hemorrhage more jobs. .02, Jesse __________________ "call the hospital now" "I'm gonna kill you" inspiring words from Mino Fazio

I'm a full-time student (junior in high-school). No part-time job during the schoolyear, my parents won't let me. I plan on working as a lawyer for the state either as a prosecutor or a defense attorney for those who don't have the money to pay for a lawyer themselves. __________________ Webcomics you should be reading: [Dinosaur Comics][Dr. McNinja][Achewood][Questionable Content]

Go out and buy the three PowerScore books. They are the absolute best prep books ever. I went from flunking the games section to aceing it. I got a 168 (96th percentile) on the june lsat, which is "good enough".

Hm. Interesting topic and even more interesting posts . I work full-time at Provena Mercy Center.. I'm a transporter. I also deejay in my spare time (nowadays, I rarely do this, although I've been writing more songs and whatnot, so it might have a comeback)... I usually get about 1000-1500 per gig (again though, only do it once or twice a month). My biggest passion right now is MMA. Hopefully, I can keep winning and either get onto the Ultimate Fighter show, or just submit my bio/tapes/ectera to the UFC and hope something comes from it.

I run batch production cycles and do system management for the USMC at the Federal complex here in KC. Base just got BRAC'd (Base Relocation And Closure), so I'll be moving to Indianapolis probably in mid 2011. I also own a few rental houses and manage 2 duplexes and another house for a friend. I still own my home remodeling business, but it's a weekend venture now. I figure I'll sleep when I'm dead....
