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.
