in a way yes, in a way no.
at my current job, the travel (pre-pandemic) was totally nuts. at least 3 overnights a week, and i had a few weeks where i left monday and came back friday night. given that i was spiraling due to addiction, this contributed heavily to the dissolution of my marriage (which i am now getting back on track). however, i was left completely alone and once i realized in 2019 that i wasn't going to get anywhere at the firm i started billing like 1700 a year and nobody said shit.
new firm has offices everywhere. there will be travel, but probably not nearly as much. when i was there as an associate, i took 3 trips total in 3 years. however, i am sure i'll be billing well over 2000 a year now. but that's fine, as it wasn't a problem for me when i was an associate (both there and at current firm), and i know i am going to advance.

also, unrelated: i sprayed mace at a hatebreed show my friend set up in 1997 at a fire hall. had a bunch of baltimore skinheads threatening my life over it, and i hit the singer of hatebreed in the side of his face with the mace (it was this foamy shit). a full scale riot broke out, fights all over the place. i legit came close to being murdered. some of the bmore skins were coming after me, and i later found out one went out to his car to get a gun. thank god the cops showed up.
actually, somewhat related: the girl i referred to above (was my ex at the time) was friends with the bmore skins and she made calls to them to smooth things over and it worked. i appreciated that a lot, because i couldn't go to shows for a few months. in fact, this band Despair (singer of Terror) played the same place a little bit after that incident, and the bassist came up to me and said "dude, you should probably go. these skinheads are talking about killing you in the parking lot." i got the fuck out of there immediately.
if anyone here knows anyone from DC/maryland/NOVA who was involved in the hardcore scene in the late 90s, they will know about this. it became part of local scene lore for many years.
also, in around 2010 i went to this club called the otto bar in baltimore, and this guy twinkie (hugely fat skin who was a main driver behind these plans to murder me) was working the door. as i was going in, he said "don't mace me bro!" and we laughed and shook hands. we have become friendly since.

my friend steve (later sang for 86 mentality and was in the dead end boys - we went to high school together) got laid out on the dance floor, head split open. an ambulance had to come.
band stopped playing, and lights went on. i swear to god, i heard this HUGE skinhead who had just gotten out of the marines bragging about "fucking that guy up." turns out it was a complete misunderstanding, and steve just slipped or something. i ran and shut the door to the venue and started going after the guy, which was utterly retarded bc he could have taken my arms off. anyway a bunch of his friends and me/my friends squared off. my friend stuck mace in my hand and told me to spray it, but i said hell no. then the marine guy charged at me, and i just let loose, mace all over the fucking room. that's when all the shit broke loose.
at one point my friend sean made this dude noah's (he sang for dead end boys and was a notorious tough guy) face look like hamburger meat, it was something to behold. people throughout the scene were talking about how the bowie kids (i am from bowie, md) really held their own against the baltimore skins.

it is now. from its beginnings (mid 60s or so) through around 2000, it was over 90% white, and the nonwhites were asians and shit. VERY FEW blacks, as in i can think of one family in my entire neighborhood (the R section).
i moved out of bowie in 1999, and my god it turned after that. it is now nearly 100% black. amazing sea change happened in a few years.
even though bowie was all white back then, they bussed nigs from capitol heights and other ghettos to our middle schools and high schools. i was exposed to a lot of enriching culture during the school days.

yea, in the long run i probably made the right move. i was a service partner in biglaw and paid SPS (making like 375k, unreal, and yes i was at a firm everyone would agree is biglaw and i was in the dc office).
i left to go back to an L&E boutique because i was lied to about equity partnership prospects. spaceporn got me fired from there.
now i am at a midlaw firm and they took me in as an equity partner. i basically run the labor practice (because it's just me an associate lol) and should make close to $500k this year. can't complain.
