You can tell that the guy next to you in the elevator is a newbie lawyer if:
- He looks harrassed but manages to brim with self-importance. (More senior lawyers tend to wallow in self-conceit.)
- He spouts legal sounding words an octave higher than the rest of his sentence. (More senior lawyers tend to trade in their legalese for better pick-up lines.)
- His tie is askew from carrying all those files.
- He jumps everytime his boss swears.
- His briefcase has a bulge shaped like a judge's gavel. Probably too scared to give it back to the judge after having ducked out of the way.
