I remember on the first year orientation on the first day, shitbag senior associate said “Our fiscal year begins next month, you all have one vacation day accrued this month, you should absolutely take it before the days reset.” I took it near the end of the month, shitbag IP senior associate called me to put me on a privilege log. This was before you got your VMs forwarded to your email. When I followed up the next day he said, I heard you were out on vacation, so it was assigned to someone else. Was blackballed from the IP dept going forward. I only joined that stupid firm for IP.

Look, patent cases routinely are decided based on priv logs. You should have anticipated this would be a possibility.

During my stub year, the firm has "star" associates talk to us. I recall a pale white associate with slicked back hair and a blank stare tell us in a monotone voice:

"I have been here for 4 years. In that time, I have never taken a vacation other than firm holidays. You will have time in the future to take time off, but now is the time to build your reputation."

The guy made partner but looks like an emotionless robot. Met him recently at a firm event to try get former attorneys that have gone inhouse to send over some bidness. I asked if he ever took a vacation, he said he took some time off when his dad died. Sad man

Very sad.

He's fucked up.

What is it all for anyway? Does he even like what he does?

Did this sway you to not send work to that firm?

I'd never send them anything. I hated my time there. They would admittedly be a good choice for a handful of things, but I'd rather just get their quarterly offer to grab lunch, dinner, etc and ignore it/decline.

I agree that he is a bit fucked up. He always seemed like a douche.

It would be one thing to put in that maniacal level of work if you were building some world changing company that could make you a hundred million dollars. But just to become some random Biglaw partner who has 5 million bucks after 20 years of brutal grinding? Sad.

On the other hand, someone has to do it, and it sounds like this guy has the right temperament and is sufficiently motivated by the coin that he earns.

Might as well be him.

sad indeed. i have a similar story from v10 corp: one of the only guys they made partner one year, had taken literally 0 vacation days in the previous year, and perhaps a weekend for a wedding in the previous year. he wasn't emotionless (would get out for hookers and blow, and really let loose for an hour whenever he got out of the office) but he literally worked every single day of the year, if called upon

Jfc. Partner life seems horrible. I am often apologetic with our main firm. I know they bill us for their time but dude is sometimes like,

"Have a family event tonight, but can make myself available after. Just out of pocket for a bit."

He seemingly puts up some barriers. I'm hopefully one of the more chill clients. I'll typ say,

"No worries. Give me a shout in the AM. This is urgent, but it can wait until then."

LOL @ lawyers saying doctors are intellectually incurious. Anybody who spends more than a few years in biglaw is empty on the inside.

i received an OCI rejection from the interviewing attorney at 2 am on a Sunday morning and immediately realized I dodged a bullet.
