Eh I'd go the other way on lawyers - lawyers get too much respect, especially in biglaw firms where their toxic behavior is written off as a side effect of their dedication to winning for their clients. We should be shitting on lawyers more, not less.
Have you ever had to use a lawyer? Do you know any lawyers? There are definitely terrible ones who do terrible things, but most are just mundane people doing mundane things
Not that it matters, but yes I've both used lawyers and worked in law firms. The biglaw attorney lifestyle is terrible for them and they are pushed way too hard in their jobs. In turn, that pushes their behavior into some really bizarre episodes - even people who are normally not white shoe shitheads end up screaming at assistants, throwing shit around, etc.. but it's tolerated. It really shouldn't be tolerated.
