Do you have an “extreme” in-house job?

by Editors on December 18, 2006

Rees Morrison of the Law Department Management blog has a recent post that may spin off a reality TV show – in-house lawyers with extreme jobs:

"As defined by a task force’s recent report, a corporate attorney has an “extreme job” if the attorney works 60 hours a week and suffers at least five additional characteristics from a list of 10. According to the NY Times, Dec. 3, 2006 at Sec. 10, pg. 1, "These [blights] include fast-paced work under tight deadlines, responsibility for profit and loss, a large amount of travel, an unpredictable flow of work, and work-related events outside business hours.”"
