it was good while it lasted
just over 3 months since i've joined a&o. probation over, for now, and i've had a great appraisal from my mentor, but things are just started. next week i go back to a familiar dept, in kinda familiar circumstances. banking, here i am again.
my time in cap mkts was great. my mentor was understanding and willing to teach, my hours were good, and i felt that my work was appreciated. it was a shame that it could not have lasted longer.
i'm not sure how a&o banking compares to wongp banking. in all likelihood it would be similar, which i'm not too sure is a good thing. having enjoyed my time at cap mkts, i'm not sure if i can go back and adjust my expectations again. sigh.
ah well. i guess knuckling down and working hard is necessary if i want my career to be heading anywhere. i don't have great ambitions or anything, but i do want to fulfil my potential somewhat. i may not going to be a superstar, but i want to be a competent lawyer at the least.
and i just realized, that other than blogging abt work, i don't really have anything else to blog abt. this is kind of sad, isn't it?
