Lol, Obladi, I have seriously been drawn to IT jobs. Perhaps we are NFs desperately in denial of our types?
As for your experience with the defense firm, I'd have been the same way. At least as a prosecutor I can suss out who needs what (within the context of the law and sentencing guidelines) and play negotiator. When I've done defense I always want to say to people "what the heck were you thinking?"
