“Halftime show was terrible,” the talentless fourth-year corporate drone said at 2:47 am, moments after deleting a stray comma from an officer’s certificate and leaning back in his chair thinking, “ahh, yes, this was all worth it.”

Got an email asking me to do something right as I was getting out of an Uber at my friend’s Super Bowl party. Replied saying I was away from my computer and would handle first thing in the AM. Problem solved :)

Just delegate your work out and become the boot upon which others may lick. It’s your reward for previously being under the boot.

Junior Associates - How much student loan debt are you and your peers in these days? A few young partners and counsel at my firm were discussing the student loan moratorium and most of us were convinced we could have paid the majority of our loans off with the bonuses associates got these last two years. But we are all old and when we graduated 150k to 200k was about the max student loan debt people graduated with. So educate me. What is the average student loan debt these days?

Do I tell someone at my firm? Don’t want to offend SP or cause drama, but I’m concerned.
