I think so. I’m just not that smart and not that effective at negotiating and I’ve only had super stressful, yet super meaningless law jobs. Basically I add no value so I’m coming to that fork in the road where I have to reinvent myself in such a way that is useful.

10 years out. I’m okay at negotiating, but I’m not good at just bullshitting. I know how to give and push on points that are important, but I don’t like fighting over stupid points and I am naturally inclined toward consensus.

Look, your only gonna make it there for a decent amount of time if you tuck a big but secret "fuck you" between yr ears when they give you "feedback". Otherwise, w their level of criticism you'll get psychically demolished. Just discount all their "advice" as being based on very limited information. They aren't superior to you as lawyers. And they pass their shitty management and personal issues on to you as misplaced bullshit career criticism. Remember that.

Jeez take it easy on yourself. Those guys are just jerks. You cant let shit from them get you down. I literally would keep things very distinct--separate categories between personal life and private life. Dont let them get in your head.

You know life is long and you'll scatter some seeds on stony ground and some on fertile ground. This period is scattering on stony ground unless you look at it like you are essentially self-employed in life anyway and seek to expand your connections and skill sets.

Keep your shit separate, is what I'm telling you. Have a rich life outside of work. Dont depend on them for friendship or even being companionable.
