[QUOTE="Rayhaan V, post: 85, member: 19"] No problem at all - as a disclaimer I stress again that everyone's experience is different! Yeah I think for the most part I would include the magic circle, but as I say because so much comes down to personal experience I suppose I shouldn't generalise too much. In terms of working life, I found it okay - as I mention in another answer I found it tricky to become really comfortable with everyone around the firm (I'm personally quite introverted so it took me a while), but in terms of the actual work and the hours I didn't mind that at all, I think it's a question of going in as openly and with as much enthusiasm as possible, and you'll be fine. That being said, it's inevitable that you will be tired a fair amount - everyone has their own ways of dealing with that, it's simply a reality of the job. I do have to say, though, that if you have the right people around you and you can have a laugh every now and then, the fatigue isn't quite as tough to deal with, and when you have trainees around you who are all in the same boat, that helps a lot.
