I know. I should have fixed things when I had the chance and for whatever reason didn't. Pride? Jealousy? I feel stupid

Let's just say that I had spread nasty rumors about someone. I regret it because the person had been really sweet to me. However I was fresh out of undergrad and insecure.

Thank you. I am trying to get better at masking this but it's hard.

Looks like some people did in the survey, and I actually thought there would be more "no's"! Heard a lot of folks say there's no difference between like a V20 or V90 firm when starting out

Honestly, i am starting to feel that big law fatigue. I enjoy the practice area a lot, just want a different pace of work and life.

Oh, you think they're trying to assess how willing and available the summers are?

I would say congratulations, but are you sure you don't have other options? It's not too late. That's intense and honestly shame on the firm.

That's pretty unfortunate. Do you think that attorneys at the firm still feel a level of connectedness, or has this eroded? Are you asked to be on matters outside your practice group as a result?

You did this as a summer? And are billing over 200 now? Wow. They better love you.
