Relatively new lawyer?
New lawyers aren’t typically well adjusted to the business world - they don’t usually come with a ton of business experience and largely are managed by the same.
Given any volume of employees in any field like that, much less a higher pressure field, no surprise to see some burst
I dont see where OP said she was new, just that she was at the firm for a couple months. You don't have to be a brand new lawyer to refuse putting up with a law firm's shit. Most of the time when people do this, its because they've already seen some real bullshit at the firm so they're getting out before they're too deep in. I personally wouldn't go scorched earth unless there was some HORRIBLE behavior, but we have no context whatsoever other than OP saying she's "nuts." When I see people saying stuff like that, I automatically assume we're not getting the whole story for a reason. Like when someone says aaallllll their exes are crazy.
To add, older generations just developed alcoholism and sucked it up. Younger generations don’t drink as much (that’s good) but social media has normalized and glamorized rage quitting.
Idk I’ve seen a number of people rage quit and it’s usually blamed on the mental instability of the rage quitter or an inability to deal with “the pressure.” Not that rage quitters are actually trying to promote change in an org they will never work in again anyway, but not sure rage quitting is the best path to change. The most persuasive candidate to facilitate change is probably the person who gives a long notice period and still sticks to their decision to leave after being offered additional comp (or something else) to stay. Then the firm knows culture is to blame.
She might be upholstered she might be under a lot of stress LOL she just wants to do what's best for her to move on we'll leave the door office you might want to come back she might want to come back and she's a little more calm and her just want her shoulder and life is a little more peaceful just don't put as a red flag all together don't count me out all together she may come back and run that business one day you know don't count around she's being polished and buff then didn't prepare for something or another it's okay we will have our dry spots we will have our highs and lows nobody's perfect she'll be okay or pray fast time talk to God and she'll be all right at least some things alone you can't change and move on find a funny side what's the lesson to this to learn what is this about okay don't fight it say I'm going to handle this and put this thing in the choke hole and I'm going to be fine with it we're going to ride this thing out together to will fall off we're going to be okay it's not that serious because something else is coming behind it more BS is coming so Master just put it under your foot and move on
What in the entire fuck is this comment?
You will see many Career Limiting Moves over your years of practice. Some are more spectacular than others. Some have a points but many are pointless. Popcorn and martinis are good fare while you watch,
As much as my curious self would like to see the letter, I agree with Counsel 1. This is too much like shaming and not like another law firm calling you for a reference/opinion on someone they are about to hire.
...because she is.
