Not really, but I thought the thread title would attract some attention. I actually am really liking all the lawyers I've met this summer, but I seriously want to throttle several of the summer law clerks (aka law students). Here's a sampling of their behavior:
In response to the story of former NBA millionaire Minut Bol spending the last of his money freeing a cousin from slavery in the Sudan, one clerk said that he'd rather have the money than waste it on a distant relative like a cousin.
Another clerk asked me if I returned from lunch early (after 2 1/2 hours) because I was trying to break through the glass ceiling. This same clerk snapped his fingers at the Recruiting Director and Assistant Recruiting Director, called out "Hey, Recruiting People," and insisted they send out an e-mail telling everyone it was his birthday. I don't recall receiving that e-mail.
Yet another clerk has an interesting theory on sexuality and its effects on driving. As we all know, women are simply awful drivers. But their inabilities to operate a vehicle are far surpassed by homosexuals. You see, homosexuals are so busy groping each other that they cannot concentrate on the road. I asked him if by following that logic, that would make eunuchs the best drivers.
I'm quite sure these cretins will not be offered positions with the firm, but it's sheer hell having to endure a summer with them. I just found out today that I have to attend dinner at a partner's house next week with not one, not two, but all three of them. Mr. Mischka is coming to make sure I don't hurt them.

Most likely appellate work instead of trial, though.
