Back in the old days, satelite offices such as the one depicted on the video in Wheeling, West Virginia, were considered glue factories for underperforming horses, ahem, associates. I guarantee anyone willing to work in that ghost town will develop cabin fever and eventually wither away into oblivion.

I have no teeth, eat road kill, and run a still up in the holler. Can I work in the West Virginia office? You can marry my cousin if you want - we've only got two kids, and I don't like them much.

Are things that bad at GULC that the WV branch of Orrick is the highlight job posting of the week at the career services office? I knew GULC was bad but come on.

Does anyone actually find absurdly enormous fake breasts attractive? I recall them looking ok in the original ad, but she looks terrible in all those pictures. I'll have to dig up that issue of Playboy.

Sadly Bob let ATL know I was being laid off before he let me know.

While starting out doing endless doc review in Wheeling isn't the most desireable career path, GULC students should feel right at home in a ramshackle law factory located in a run-down part of town.

Fuck, that Orrick building is an OSHA inspector's dream. I counted at least half a dozen violations, including the hanging beam. The folks that work in the Wheeling office of Orrick look like they could belong to David Koresh's cult (perhaps all the asbestos inhalation). I wouldn't move to Wheeling if it were the last nuclear shelter in the world. I would rather let the radiation or the atomic blast kill me than even try to venture out to Wheeling.

She should be an adult movie star. She certainly looks like one.

Beauty and the Beast rolled into one fine pair. The sad part is that her nipples are hairy. The ones up front and the superfluous ones on her back. It's like Teen Wolf.

I put it in a West Virginia once. I've been as crooked as a backwards C ever since.

I agree with Partner Emeritus. nothing good can come out of being put out to pasture in an office located in WV. I think I would feel like Luke WIlson's character in Idiocracy. needless to say, i would be driven into a homicidal rage and go postal on the streets of downtown wheeling.

Orrick's Wheeling satelite office is known as Stalag 17 at the firm.

Withering away into oblivion, huh? Judging by the looks of things, you look like you know what you're talkin' 'bout.

No such thing as a safe firm. The brackets are an exercise in futility.

@7 - No. I don't get it, either. Fake lips and fake tits almost always look worse than the original. Ugly chicks with fake stuff is sort of like spoilers on economy cars. There's nothing wrong with a Corolla, but a Corolla pretending to be a Porsche is gross. Hot chicks with fake stuff is sort of like thinking that 24" rims will make your Porsche look better. They won't.
