I have literally never been chewed out in this job (save the occasional minor reprimand for a sloppy typo or missing something small) and yet, every time I send a deliverable, I imagine getting an angry call from the partner or client screaming at me that my work is terrible. I’m a fourth year. Why is my brain like this?

Joining a big firm next week as fully remote lateral and flying out to home office for orientation. The schedule has me in office until 4:15. I’ve already been told I won’t have any actual work. Depending on how many people are there and how it feels, I was planning to stay an hour extra but should I hang around the office until later? First time visiting this city so it’d be great to take in some sights too (although that’s not a priority of course).

Do I try to stick it out at the firm while getting the masters, ask for a reduced hours schedule, or get a part time, non-legal job so I can focus more on the program (one year).

Will firm say anything if I travel and but am still working? Probably intentionally. Probably a week or two. Figure the VPN will tell them
