A Tasmanian (not) in London

The tales of yet another Australian in (Australia who left) London...

Back at home in Tassie after a year and a half in London, I now dedicate myself to protecting society from unwarranted prosecution by the state. (And keeping criminals out of prison, but mostly that other thing.)

First day (night) at work

Well I have just arrived home from my first shift at Linklaters. A bit hard to make any serious judgments about what it was like, though they are certainly more structured than the other big firms that I have encountered over in London. Not to mention that the Examiners department is at least three times bigger than the proofreading service at Clifford Chance.

The building they are in is almost comical in its labyrinth like structure though. I suppose getting lost for a while is a good a way as any to spend you 'lunch' hour at 4.00 am.

It is yet to snow in London, though it certainly seems cold enough this morning to do so. I may just think that because I forgot to take my gloves to work.

Anyway, I had better get myself of to bed as I don't seem to be able to form any thoughts coherent enough to type. In fact, my posts may increase in entertainment value as I become increasingly unhinged due to lack of sleep, but I am sure that my sleep patterns will settle down soon enough.

For an "Examiner", you did a might good job on this post.
And will mentioning the actual names of firms on a public website lead to legal action?

Elaborate anonymous poster...

As for legal action, certain law firms never had me sign a confidentiality agreement. Also, I know their secrets...
