I have not read this board or even typed this URL for over a year, until today. I was actually surprised (but pleasantly so) to find that this board is still alive and not eaten up by ATL by now. Even more surprised to see a thread with my name on it on the front school-related page.

Yes, I was laid off almost two years ago now. Severance and never-ending unemployment checks were great (thanks Obama!), but I would not wish that experience on anyone. Some of my friends had new families, mortgages, student loans, car payments, etc. I've always lived on a tight budget so I was okay financially. But I cared about my work and liked what I was doing, so it was still tough to be dumped out.

Even though I was barely a second year when I was laid off, I was lucky in that I gotten good training and a lot of responsibility on interesting, high-profile deals. Most importantly, I had figured out that I wanted to keep being an M&A lawyer, at least for the time being. Having some sense of direction is a big help in unemployment, as long as you can survive financially.

Now I work in a small-ish firm in a foreign country that you won't find on the letterhead of any major law firm. (Except maybe Baker & McKenzie.) The pay is a small fraction of Biglaw and the technology feels like the Prodigy era. But I enjoy living here and I still work on interesting (albeit very small) projects, and the hours and the clients tend to be more humane. Staying here long-term could pay off financially. Or I may go back to the US at some point and see what is available to me. I am occasionally contacted by recruiters and biglaw firms, but right now I care more about the type of work and experience than the money.

I don't plan on reading this board again for another year or longer. I am so off the biglaw grid now that it just does not have much relevance for me anymore. Nice to see the community is still around and hasn't gotten all TTT in the meantime, even if my career arguably has. To anybody else who suffered or got outright pwned ITE, hope we all find a way to pull through.

I am the OP (secret pumo now). Sorry to hear it all, man, but glad to hear you're making the best of your time abroad.

We emailed back in the day when we were interviewing for SA jobs. I was bummed when my interview at your firm was a callback fail, but I'm still at the firm I ended up at. You never know how things will work out, I guess.

Good luck.
