My job in the law firm When i took my degree in law, four years ago, i left my city (i used to live in Pompei) to go to Rome to attend a course for taking a master degree in corporate law. Afterward i joined the workforce and started to work for a law firm in Naples. At the beginning i liked it, the first impression was very good: the office was very beautiful, huge (three floors), the people (my collegues) kind, smart, professional and very well dressed. During the first three years I learnt a lot of new things and i improved my professional skills. But the pace of life was very hard. I lived far from the office (at least 25 km) and so everyday i have to commute to work. We worked many hours a day (9-10 hours a day) and so when i came back at home in the evening i was completely exausted. i could just eat something and go to spleep. Then my job was very stressed: i used to go to the court in the morning and after i used to come back at the office straight away, taking just a 15 minutes break to eat something. At the end i decided to resign because i couldn't do it anymore.

My job in A law firm

When i started my degree in law, four years ago, i moved from PompeII ( in English we spell it with 2 "i"s from the Latin?! hehe)  to Rome to attend a master's degree course in corporate law.
AfterwardS i joined the workforce with a law firm in Naples.
In the beginning i liked it,  first impressionS were very good: the office  very beautiful and huge (three floors), the people (my colleAgues) kind, smart, professional and very well dressed.
During the first three years I learned a lot of new things and improved my professional skills.
HOWEVER, the pace was very demanding. I lived around 25 km away from the office and thus had a long commute everyday.
We worked SEVERAL hours a day (9-10 hours daily) and so when i RETURNED home in the evening i would be completely exHausted, ( more modern, colloquial etc is " i'd return home exhausted) eat something then CRASH - i.e maybe change clothes etc lie down and as soon as your head hits your pillow fall asleep immediately (bit like a computer "crashes" when overused, or when it comes to socialising with others and you've stayed out very late far from where you live, you're very tired , if you're British probably a bit/very drunk lol etc  maybe don't have to go out early the next morning etc  a friend  might suggest "it's ok, you can CRASH at mine" )
Also the job was very stressful: i would go to court in the morning and afterwards RETURN to the office straight away, taking just a 15 minutE break to grab something to eat ( grab because a south Italian lunch never stereotypically takes just 15 mins!! ) 
IN the end i decided to resign because i couldn't do it anymore.

Life at your law firm seemed very difficult. I do not blame you for resigning.
