Nursing but I'm working on my environmental science degree...
Do I get to claim land lord too since I'm renting my couch out for a week to my now ex step dad? Being a couch land lord has actually been pretty profitable somehow.

I am a paralegal. Right now, I'm jumping from temp job to temp job trying to get something permanent, but no one is hiring.
They say that unemployment is below recession levels and I call super bullshit on that one.

The unemployment rate is down because they don't count people who have run through their benefits or who have quit trying.
As far as your profession goes there is a glut of lawyers looking for work. Why pay a paralegal when there are starving lawyers desperate for a job?

Because lawyers aren't trained as paralegals. I recently had a temp job where I worked with 3 attorneys. We all did the same job - reading contracts. All of the lawyers in the room listened to me and learned from me.
Lawyers interpret the law, paralegals write up the docs and make sure the attorney is barking at the right person about the right thing.

Are you trying to tell me that paralegals know more about the law than lawyers? Or that unemployed lawyers can't do paralegal work?

What I'm telling you is that the paralegals write up the documents and the lawyers make sure they're kosher and the wording is just right for the outcome.
Lawyers don't know how to write contracts and stuff because that's not what they're trained for.
And yes. Unemployed lawyers *shouldn't* be doing paralegal work. That's like asking the bartender to come back in the kitchen and take over for the head chef.

Let me break it down for you:
XYZ Insurance is suspected of overcharging ABC hospital based on some recently rewritten policy. The attorney tells me to research these charges and bring in what I find. After reviewing my research, the attorney may tell me to get Statute 123 for their review. After reviewing that, now the attorney mostly drafts a strongly worded letter threatening legal action. Phone calls go back and forth. Pissing contests are had. Finally a resolution is reached. I review the settlement, bring key items to the attorney's attention, and it's up to whoever to sign the docs.
That is how 99% of legal issues are handled.

I work part time at a bank doing printing and night operations. In a week I'll be picking up a cooking job at school for some weekend work.
It's nothing crazy but it's helping me pay for school.

I know that. Unemployed lawyers can't do that?

They are better trained at arguing than documentation.
If you don't believe me, ask an attorney.

Most of the attorneys I know do just that. Very few litigate. And an unemployed lawyer certainly can do it.
