There was no bigger PGP than reading all of your all’s useless, time-consuming, embarrassing and excellent and wildly entertaining opinions and rants and stories and about your lives and relating them to my own when I should have been doing my own subpar work at my job.
Thank you all for your service in my early postgrad life, and I can’t wait to read everything you all write next.
I couldn’t relate to this more as the youngest of three with two older sisters who both live across the country, both in different directions. Another issue which I run into though is that there is an obvious closer relationship between myself and one sister than between either of us and our other sister. It’s by no means intentional, but sharing both 1 year in high school and in college lenses itself to us just having a lot more in common, and even 10 years later, it’s very evident. Our oldest sister knows this, but still doesn’t make the effort to try, and sometimes, as much as we try, you really just can’t force the issue. Our Mom makes every attempt to combat that by intervening, but sometimes, what more can – person do then ask and be inclusive?
I finished sub-50% in my class, stacked my resume with bullshit that wasn’t journals or moot court, had no desire for firm life and wanted to fulfill a pipe dream of going straight in-house, and I hated Property, Secured Transactions, and Real Estate law in general
First job out of law school (and going on a year now)- I work in-house for a Fortune 500 real estate holding company doing all three of those things. Funny how things work out.
Take a light jacket. Not too bulky to carry around, but just warm enough for the girl you’re trying to take home to appreciate your sacrifice when you let her wear it.
If you put everything all post grads hate about society right now (i.e. vegans, hipsters, longboards, Jordan Rogers, gluten-free, expensive drinks, not brunching, etc) into a person, that person would be you.
First, it would be things about him being blessed every time he snapped a picture with Lyla or Tim or every time he got a scholarship offer in the mail. And then he’d snap something pre / post-game with the team in the locker room. And post-injury, he’d snap about rehab.
Andrew Luck: Came in having to fill the shoes of a beloved office lifer. Has the same potential as the guy before him, but has a tendency to throw away the same amount of deals he closes in a year.
Robert Griffin III: When comparing resumes, people were torn b/w this guy and Luck. This guy closed hella deals his first year, but just has not been in the office enough to produce lately. Moved to the Cleveland branch in order to try and resurrect his promising career
Can’t forget the loud-talkers who insist on socializing between sets, with their headphones on, basically screaming at one another so they can hear themselves speak.

This feels like when two of your best friends whose lives you feel like you know better than your own tell you they’re moving away never to come back.
I’m having just one beer in your honors.
Can confirm. Monday and Friday off for the entire year was nothing short of hungover and spectacular.

I’m 26, single, and this is already me. I’m fucking hopeless.
I’m starting a new job on Monday. This is the hotel they’re putting me in. I. Am. Stoked.

Currently screaming obscenities at this article for it’s accuracy while sobbing into a bowl of quinoa.

In-house. Fuck billable hours.
She’s god damn terrifying.
You just think they’re “assholes” because you seem like an unbearable human being and they have no desire to spend any time with you.
