This was a very interesting read. Thank you for sharing. "I’ve seen [partners] throw things at trainees." I am genuinely nervous for anyone with a snowflake mentality entering this profession. I don't think anything justifies partners treating their juniors this way, but the harsh reality is that this profession is stressful because of the high stakes involved for firms and their clients. I am developing a thick skin now so that I can take constructive, critical or even less-than-polite criticism without internalising victimhood. Otherwise, I will most certainly flunk out of the profession.

I know! I was reading it in actual shock because obviously it would be naive to think this career is not high pressured, but the way some of these lawyers were describing how they were being treated was making me feel nauseous 😭

Sorry can someone help me answer these - i have got most wrong on this one.
All intelligent pupils are members of a diplomatic service. No normal pupil is intelligent. Therefore: Proposed Conclusions:
No member of a diplomatic service is a normal pupil.
Every intelligent pupil takes an active role in the service.
The normal pupil cannot be an active member of a diplomatic service.
Some members of a diplomatic service are abnormal pupils.

Ah I'm so sorry to hear this! Stay strong, and think do you really want to work for a firm that leaves you on tender hooks for 5 weeks!

Seems, the firm basically owns you. It makes sense given the salary. It helps to have a goal. If you want to buy a house.
I think Conclusion Follows; Conclusion Follows; Conclusion Does Not Follow; Conclusion Does Not Follow. What's the answer?
