OP: how's your health been? (exercise/diet)

Not great. But it was like that before big law. (OP)

First day back for the real job, no welcome party. Just here is some shitty vids on not using the n word and there is your office. Someone will be in touch to give u work soon. kbye

Sounds pretty sweet. I didn't even get the n-word video. Firm jumped straight to the "here's some work; do it" part.

Yeah kids, your summer experience does not resemble your experience as an actual associate, though your firm may tell you otherwise. Your summer associate experience prepares you for your junior associate experience in the same way that the Pirates of the Caribbean ride at Disneyland prepares you for being boarded by armed Somali pirates in the middle of the ocean.

LOL @ this analogy. Love it.
