Wait, what? I did not receive these.
I haven't either. Can we confirm it's Paul, Weiss that sent the chocolate and not a typo?
I got black and white cookies (the kind pictured in an old thread) from them
I got a package as well, but didn't open the metal box to see the contents. Will assume chocolate or cookies now.

Looks legit. I still have a book of Debevoise Post-It's from OCI that are in the same design as that notebook.

What kind of monster gets sent a metal box and doesn't bother to open it?

That sucks dude, I'm sorry. No swag=no offer is a saying for a reason.

At least you won't have to work with the kinds of people who get sent gifts and say "Eh, naw, I'm not even gonna bother opening that."

Cadwalader changing it up this year — they went with the lightweight sporty quarter-zip, looks like it's for running or working out. Actually kinda nice, because it gets around the cardinal problem of firm clothes: being the douche who wears them to school. You're allowed to wear anything to the gym.

I got a box of fretzels from Allen & Overy.

Update: they're delicious.

Milbank sent a pretty sweet fleece (I'm a 3L/incoming 2016 associate), so I presume they also sent them to 2Ls.

Why? A bottle of Dom should definitely count as positive PR for the firm.
