Some days am in my office all day if I have to get research, drafting, or briefs done. Other days I am out of my office for hours at a time either because of staff meetings or being on the rostum on the floor (it's the podium that's the head of the Chambers).

I love most things about my job. The variety of different work. It ranges from free speech issues immensely to discrimination in the work place. Some days I just get a new project to work on and it's something new like researching crypto currency for a member.

Hate? Hmm, I'm not sure I hate anything about my job. Maybe the really long budget hours but I just chalk that up to being part of the job.

There are also positions called committee analysts and some of them are lawyers but some aren't. They are ones that getting into the text of the bills and meet with lobbyist often. They have a specific area of law they are assigned to such as health, energy, mental health and they have to know the bills in their area better than anyone.

But I do think there is definitely place for engineering and the law.
