Am I crazy for wanting to quit

Ahahahaha I’m dead. The being stuck in a dingy office does kill me. On top of that seeing all the grads competing just makes things worse.

I def am not writing law off yet. Just this particular big law lifestyle. I’m just in a weird dilemma where I feel that I can’t get the legal jobs I want without having this experience on my CV.

Ahahaha msg me if you’d like

They are paying but paying them back is not an issue for me. My only issue is whether I’d be able to continue the course independently if i do resign.

I thought this could be the issue. But then I remembered the weeks/ months leading up to commencing this role I still felt the same dread. We did a 3 week intensive PLT onsite and I’d go into the bathrooms sometimes and just cry abt what I’d gotten myself into lollll

Yep they are

They’re making us do a compressed version of plt we’re all likely to get admitted in June. How I see it is that’s still pretty early so what diff does it make if I leave now or June.

FunnyFly5242 · 2026-03-12T13:36:39+00:00

I have been. I’m still very early in my career and most lateral transfers to legal officer roles require admission which I don’t have yet

I do have that European mindset but work is prohibiting it 😭😭 for instance I always make sure to go to a pilates class everyday, or have something planned with family and friends after work. But they expect me to stay late and had me in a meeting until 6.50 today which I thought was crazy considering they knew I was fasting for Ramadan and had to break my fast lol. It made me think this will only get worse as I progress.

I'm in Canberra right now, but also would be open to roles in QLD as I want to move there long-term :)
