How do I assert dominance over my fellow summer classmates on my first day? Is it TCR to compare LSAT scores

Show your fellow summers pics of your hot girlfriend, who may or may not be a paid escort.

How much should I pay for my escort? All out balls out because $$$ummer? Also, should said escort be oriental ethnic or WASP?

TCR anywhere that pays market or just below market.

Ethnicity, however, is very firm-dependent.

What is market rate for a LEGITIMATE escort in NYC?

Suit color questions (Sorry to continue this theme):

1. Black, Navy Blue, Dark Gray, Blue pinstripe - I assume these are uncontroversial suit colors?

2. Dark Brown - Too seventies? It's a standard/recent style but not sure if it's acceptable for the office.

3. Light Gray - I used to wear this with white shirt/pink tie. I think that's out for a DC V10 but is there any color combo that can make light gray acceptable?

4. Any other suit colors/styles I should consider going for? I think I have the basics - trying to figure out where to branch out from here.

You have plenty of suits - no need for more branching out. Light gray with white shirt and any traditional color tie is going to be fine.

Navy blue + charcoal is all you need really. Charcoal/dark grey with light pastel colored shirt. /r/malefashionadvice has examples

Well you've got enough suits...but...being in DC in the summer and all...have you thought about a pastel seersucker?

[logdog]

You'll need a nice pair of white bucks too.

This legal profession thing's just gotta hold it together another decade so our group can make bank and get out before any big changes come along.

It's only been 3 days and I'm already realizing how big I need to do it 3L year before the real world hits. It's depressing to leave the office and see basically every lawyer still there.

This is going to probably be a dumb question--but here we go:

Firm I'm working at is business casual. They told us to 'keep a suit in the office' in case we unexpectedly are asked to go to court or attend a client meeting. But, what does this exactly mean? Like just a sport coat and a tie? Or a full on suit? If the latter, are we expected to change our whole outfit (assuming the pants we are wearing doesn't match our suit jacket) in our office/bathroom or something before attending court/client meeting? Any help here?

You should have a closet to hanga full suit. I would keep a suit in the office. A sport coat on top of some non-matching pants is not a suit. You can change inthe bathroom or your office if you aren't sharing and dont have see through offices.

I quite enjoyed the fact that you thought it was necessary to clarify this part. Then again, I would probably be the guy to undress and change in a shared/see through office.

[BigZuck]

For people who have started, are you guys sharing offices?

Also, how's the food so far?

[FSK]

Im bringing my lunch today since nothing is planned and food trucks arent appealing. Its home made chicken noodle soup (stock was homemade too). No offer?

[BigZuck]

food trucks arent appealing.
