The good thing about Manhattan is there's great, inexpensive, quick food everywhere. Chinatown is right next to the park. So I'll take down some soup dumplings real quick if I have to. But I'll bring something in my bag, almonds or a little protein bar or something. You wouldn't bring the dumplings in there, right? No, I'm not bringing the dumplings, no.

And it's very collegial. It's very professional. So you will say, look, you did a great job or whatever. I can't believe this happened at trial or something like that. But no, it's not like the whole world stops and I walk down the steps gracefully and the music plays and everything's perfect.

Yes. Are there lawyer bars down there that are nice that you guys like to go to? Yes, yes. There are a lot of them. Probably nice joints. I'm not going to say they're nice. Of course. But behind criminal court, there's a few bars that all the court staff, the officers, lawyers, defense lawyers. It's fun. It's crowded. Lawyers drink.

Yeah. Yeah, of course. Come on. What do you mean? Especially if you have, listen, if you're on trial all week and you have a client with you at the end of the week and he's out or she's out, like she's not incarcerated, they're going to want to have a drink with you. Cocktail. They want to spend that time. They want to connect.

Yeah. That's a federal thing, though. That's not a state. I mean, it exists in the state, but it doesn't practically exist. So on the federal level, I have lots of clients on house arrest on the federal level.
