To be fair, the big crabs can get very very big :)
It definitely is 'interesting' - I wish it were more actually interesting too! I guess there's not a lot for a lawyer to do in the Commonwealth, but it doesn't even come up very often that you're so unsuited to all this if that's your background. If we had to have a preset career, I would have preferred both soldiers or player=soldier spouse=lawyer. It would have been cool if it somehow played into the faction choices at least - maybe scientist would have worked better? The soldier > BoS thing seems obvious but I don't see the obvious option for the lawyer, but scientist > Institute would have been good (and in both cases you could do the opposite because it reminds you of your spouse or whatever, or just any reason). Then, the other two factions are not so tied to the old world (despite the stronger historical associations), so they're not so tied to your old world career?

But we end up hoarding duct tape in any case!
