My new job is boring as hell and tedious... might as well work in a factory screwing on parts for 8 hours per day..... I didn't pay $75,000 to do this shit... (well yes I almost flunked out of law school so maybe I deserve it.)
Anyhoo. Impossible to focus on work, slipping onto the Internet...

With each new workday I am surprised, confused, and often embarrassed, as I frequently break unspoken rules, miss important announcements, and otherwise screw up."
