Well theaddict, if it can be of any comfort to you, you're not the only one working in the somewhat less creative field of IP. I'm a patent litigator in Brussels. </p>

Re: This Is What I Do



I'm allowed to wear business casual. still not easy though, yohji for example is a no-go because "it looks like you're wearing pyjamas". it makes wearing my weekend clothes ever more fun though.

good luck with the phd

Yes, I deal with this issue by the phenomenon known as the weekend (and the occassional dressing-up-in-the-house-clothes-party during the week)

are you working in a law firm? if so big, medium or small? Just curious, because i want to work at a big one one day and i am pretty sure that they only allow business formal, at least that is the only thing i would dare as a fresh associate...:) but if you can recommend me an international player with less formal style rules, i would say thats a criteria for a job...haha...at least it can say something about your working environment and maybe your collegues...</p>

Man, everyone seem to have such diverse and mostly creative backgrounds...sigh...</p>

I have studied law in Germany and right now i am in the middle of a PhD. I am focussing my PhD Essay on a comparative work about Intellectual Property Rights in the film industry in Germany and South Korea. </p>

After that i have to take a second exam (Studying law in Germany is a lifetime task...) and after that i want to apply for a one year master program in NY (Although the first exam i already have is quite a equivalent to a foreign master).</p>

Besides i have been working for a biotechnological firm which is still in the process of development but will create a revolution in cardiographic analysis.</p>

If you guys have heart problems, watch out for magnetochardiography in the future! Its not used commercially yet, but the advantages of this method are so convincing, this will be the gap of this century :)</p>

I try to spare some time for sports like squash, gym, climbing, snowboard...</p>
