Then they asked for my undergrad transcript, at this point, I am now annoyed They are not Biglaw. Are they going overboard

It’s Friday night at midnight and I just got out of work. I am new to FPP defense. So far it’s soul crushing. I feel like a robot just doing the same pattern pleadings and discovery over and over.
