got my fake Patrick Bateman business cards to finalize my halloween costume.

bateman is such a legend.

i just got back from 2 days at work at the new job. basically i don't mind (too much) the working aspect, but what i do mind is the concept of networking.

i don't mind being friendly to colleagues, but what i really hate is the concept that i should try to get to know people, or get known by people, in the firm (big 4 fwiw).

i want to treat my job as something which is a part of my life, not completely my life, and i feel by putting the emphasis on networking so it becomes a bigger part of my life.

if i plan to stay for only 3 years i assume so long as i do enough to stay in the firm for that length of time, then networking isn't really that important?
