LOCAL LAW STUDENT CONFUSES NEPOTISM AND NECROPHILIA Words by Sofia Arlotta
Fifth year law student Jimmy is apprehensive about his impending graduation and finding a job, since the only way seems to be through nepotism. He, like many others, always thought of law school as a “fucking cult”, but for different reasons to most of his peers. Jimmy asked fellow fifth year Lachlan how he got that judge’s associateship and was more than disappointed to hear the response. “The way everyone does it mate nepotism!” “I know it’s common but I just don’t think I could get a job that way,” said Jimmy. “I just don’t know why it’s such a big thing in the law profession, especially since it’s such a male dominated industry. The fact that I’d probably have to do ‘it’ with a dude is way too much for me. That’s one of the reasons I support women in the law.”

Jimmy doesn’t understand how people continue getting jobs with their dads. He concludes his family must just be a bit different and not really into that stuff. Jimmy has decided to extend his degree a year.
