A Word for My Law Firm Readership on a Sunny Friday Afternoon

An old simile, but a good one:

"Becoming a partner is a decision, not a reward.  . . .  Becoming a partner in a law firm is like winning a pie-eating contest where the prize is more pie."

 

(Hat tip: Adam White at Convictions (Slate's legal blog).)

Well, you get to choose your flavors of pie and you get credit for the pies the others are eating... but yeah its a pretty solid metaphor.
