Law Firm pays $3,000/month for associates to not work – I’m not making this up. Brobeck, Phleger & Harrison is offering to pay some first-year associates as much as $3,000 per month not to show up for work until January 2004.
I like it!
If law schools are turning out too many qualified students, maybe I could get someone to pay me to not go to law school in the first place. And lord knows journalism schools and music academies are turning out more students than there are jobs; maybe I can get some of their money to stay away, too…
