I lived in the Sunset and it was great. A little foggier than downtown but not by much. Great places to eat. The presidio and GGP are your jogging tracks. Buses to downtown

I would live in the Sunset, but that’s bc my office is in SF and none of my friends would ever visit me in the South Bay or Oakland

On days when I don’t have a full workload, it’s very (I think way too) easy for me to blow off the entire day either reading news/social media and doing other things not relevant to work. I also have a habit of wanting to focus on anything but what I need to get done. Can anyone relate to either or both of these and possibly a sign of ADD/ADHD? I have an appt with my primary care doc next week but been curious about this tendency of mine for awhile.

Hope you all are having a great weekend. Just wanted to share a tip for all of those who are looking to connect with former employees - there is a filter function at Linkedin which allows you to do so (and you can combine that with the filter on location - then you can almost always find at least 2-3 people you can reach out to and ask about the firm and practice group you are thinking of lateralling).

Feel free to share any other tip with the fellow fishes!
