The seven circles of biglaw hell

What do y'all think:

First circle of biglaw hell: You have to work a lot, but it can't be helped because there are real issues / holdups / deadlines

Second circle: You have to work a lot because nobody taught you how to do X, so you have to send it in first and get annoyed emails back before you can properly do X

Third circle: You have to work a lot because your firm is borderline hazing you, because they want you to understand "this is how biglaw is"

Fourth circle: You have to work a lot because of a completely fake emergency

Fifth circle: You have to work a lot because the client and/or OC changed their minds, again

Sixth circle: You have to work a lot because your managing partner just doesn't give a fuck about you, even though a modicum of thought about your availability / bandwidth would've saved your evening / weekend / sick day / vacation

Seventh circle: You have to work a lot because your managing partner is an actual sociopath, who hates you and actively wants to make you quit
