Poll: Worst Jr. Partner / Sr. Associate to work for
Poast new message in this thread
Date: March 10th, 2010 10:40 AM Author: Naked awkward fanboi senate which is the WORST? rank from worst to least annoying
1) Striving observant jewish guy who goes awol every friday for 36 hours but expects you to work like a dog then.
2) Angry black female who has something to prove.
3) 5'5 little tough guy, making up for the abuse he suffered on the playground
4) Neurotic semi-anorexic woman, whose OCD is only rivaled by the hunted look in her eyes as she furtively darts the halls |
 |
Date: March 10th, 2010 10:45 AM Author: iridescent tripping mad cow disease My least favorite is the woman with no family, no friends and no interests who really wants to make partner, followed by the middle-aged guy who can't stand his wife and barely knows his kids.
Of the people you've listed, 3) is the worst. |

Date: March 10th, 2010 10:48 AM Author: iridescent tripping mad cow disease Doesn't really focus in on what's annoying about that person - that she cares about nothing but work and doesn't mind if she (or you) never goes home.
There's a certain sort of nice but on the edge of burnout person who also meets the description in 4), and she's not as bad. |

|
Date: March 10th, 2010 10:50 AM Author: iridescent tripping mad cow disease I suspect a lot of people who are interviewing elsewhere look like that to juniors. The nervous creeping around behavior is particularly common. These people are annoying because they're not around when you need them and seem stressed, but they're also not going to be hard on you about what you're doing.
Sometimes the new moms seem that way because they're stressed as well. |

She is absofuckinglutely the worst person to work for. Not only is she a stone cold bitch who expects you to live at the office like she does, she's a truly miserable person and looking at her life scares the shit out of me.

Date: March 10th, 2010 10:58 AM Author: iridescent tripping mad cow disease Nah, it was the "making up for the abuse he suffered on the playground." The 4) group is a mix of awful people and really stressed out people who will likely leave soon. 1)s are a pain in the ass, but most are nice enough people, which automatically exempts you from being the worst person at a law firm. I've never met a 2). (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1246604&forum_id=2#14349942) |

Date: March 10th, 2010 10:54 AM Author: adventurous trump supporter azn 4 was the worst.
Woman was about 50, so not really junior. Was an insomniac who would come in from like 1pm until like 3AM. She would email young associates assgnments at like 9pm, send shit out after midnight constantly, etc. It was like she thought the entire office was on her absurd schedule. She was also militantly feminist in a group that was otherwise a complete boys club and would regularly complain about the most innocuous comments, imputing some chauvanistic slant on them.
She was in corporate and I did litigation, so I only ever heard stories, I never had direct contact luckily. |
