Work?

I just checked out the new MOE website regarding our future occupations.. and ah... i'm kinda scared.. :( Shld i become a judge? And spend 7 years in law school and in the bar? or should i do business? Haiz.. the choices are so much.. but each of them require hard work and determination. If i do business.. i earn a monthly pay of at least 3k. I really have no idea of the working life! I need to learn more.. ahh..



General Description
Judges settle arguments and give advice in courts of law. They are in charge of hearings that are conducted to see whether a trial is necessary. Judges work in the Supreme Court and the Subordinate Courts. Judges may preside over criminal or civil trials. Criminal trials are held when the government charges someone of a crime, while civil trials are held when people accuse each other or a company of a crime.

Judges may decide what punishment lawbreakers will receive in criminal cases. In civil cases, they listen to the lawyers present their cases, examine the evidence, and settle arguments between lawyers.

Hours & Conditions
Most judges keep a standard work week but spend a great deal of time outside the courtroom researching cases.

Work Locations
Judges work in courtrooms and their offices
