If I could go back, I wouldn’t go to law school. Not because I’m bad at it, but because I genuinely don’t like it. Anyone else feel like they got tricked into this path because they were good at school and needed a “prestigious” next step? What would your path be today if you could do it all over again?

Book recommendations? I’ve been reading atomic habits, and have moved onto Traders guns and money.

Anybody else noticed recruiters are only proactively reaching out about hybrid/on-site roles nowadays?

It's almost as if people don't want to be in offices anymore so that's why it's difficult for them to fill those roles.
Sidenote: recruiters, you can see on my LI profile that I'm remote. In the "What jobs are you interested in" field you can see I'm only interested in remote roles.
So, why are you reaching out to me about jobs in a city 3 hours away that's 100% onsite and w/out even a ReLo?
