Amen. Truer words were never spoken. Typed. Whatever.
Last time I flew America Crap there was a dedicated line nazi who shrieked at people to move up in line when the next person had moved to the counter. Next! Next! Move up. MOVE UP! Who's suitcase is this? Is this your suitcase? I'm going to confiscate this suitcase if someone doesn't claim it in 10 seconds. Next! I'm serious. I'm going to call security if someone doesn't claim this suitcase. God that was the most miserable hour in line ever.

Dude! It totally rocks. Just wait until your big beer belly is big enough to actually rest an actual beer on it while you watch tv. Sweeeeeeet!

The potential in-house gig will pay more than the law firm gig. If the head hunters can be believed the job I interviewed for today is the lowest paying of the bunch.

We're all capable of mistakes, but I do not care to enlighten you on the mistakes we may or may not have made.

I am missing something here. An in-house gig paying more thatn a law firm gig? Are you at a small insurance firm or something and AIG is the gig?

I'm at a low paying, big law firm. They keep up with the NY crowd for JDs but not the rest of us peons.
All the carrots from head hunters are significantly higher than what I'm making now. In order of dangling carrot
Vendor
Boston based medium-sized law firm
west coast based big law firm
medium law firm
...
where I am now
There's even more money to be had if I am willing to move to DC or Chicago.

I invented saying someone was like nfh, so take this as a compliment- that was a nice derivation.

Are you willing to move to DC or Chicago?
If you want out of your current position, see how long the first firm will give you to make a decision. Let them know you have a couple more interviews, but don't delay too long. If other things don't work out by your deadline and you are sure the potential new position is an improvement from your current one, take it. If you later get an offer from someone else (like your preferred Vendor gig), apologize to new firm and take Vendor job. You are a free agent. Look out for yourself.
Reputation is that corporate gigs move slower than law firms in deciding who to hire, so realize that you might be waiting some time to find out on the in house position. Of course, if you have an offer in hand, that may speed along their decision-making process. If all potential positions are through the same headhunter, you should have the headhunter let Vendor know when you receive an offer from one of the firms. Added bonus: makes you look like a hot commodity.

While it is true that the most important person in the world to me is me (and why shouldn't it be?) and while I freely admit to being vulgar, I'm not sure where you inferred that from my post. I was just giving someone other than me helpful job search advice. That was quite possibly my most selfless act of the week. Don't get used to it or anything.

Clearly, Mr. Man has been kissing and telling. You should sue him.
