'Get me what I am entitled to or I will do it myself': Law school stops representing tenant who demands 2 free months of rent, flips out on 'totally useless' volunteer legal rep

This choosing beggar finally got what she asked for.

As a student, u/Zelmung got some real-world experience at their law school's student program. The OP shares that the service offered people free legal advice, while the student volunteers helped guide their clients through the process. That is a win-win — people in need can find resources, and students can gain insight into the logistics of a case.

But as the OP found out, you can't pick your clients. They need help, and they come to the law service expecting results. Nevermind that they're not actually paying for the service… they still their problems solved easily and as fast as possible.

The woman in this story was panicking over her landlord wanting to evict her. It's devastating to lose your home, but even with extra time to find a new living space, this woman decided to flip out on her student volunteer at the law school. The OP notes that she was also calling constantly while not really following any of the advice she was given. You can give people resources, but you can't make them take action if they don't want to.

Up next, this dude's job never let him take holidays off, so he saved up for decades, earning himself a jaw-dropping 7,200 hours of PTO.
