@DavidLat when's the last time an A/C repair-person went on to become president of the US? Can't win if you don't play.

@beerquests - If you want to be president, sure. But even I wouldn't want that job; too much stress! Also, Carter = peanut farmer. -
@DavidLat@beerquests Carter only retired to farm peanuts after a career as a nuclear engineer in the Navy. -
@ouij@beerquests - Fair enough. But if this is an issue of "prestige," I think misguided pursuit of it has caused many problems. -
@DavidLat my great-granddad was an illiterate bricklayer. His daughter? a schoolteacher. Her son? World Bank staff. His son? JD.... -
@ouij - Being on World Bank staff is GREAT. I have a lawyer friend who is DYING to work there. Interesting work & great benefits. -
@DavidLat tough to break in. Bank changed a lot b/w when my dad joined and when I went to college. -
@ouij - True. My friend got a Biglaw job and a federal clerkship easily. World Bank job, he's still trying....
