Twelve years ago you told me you'd make partner before the coffee machine got fixed. The coffee machine is still broken. Congratulations, Priya — nobody has ever deserved a name on the door more.

Beta, your grandfather carried his law books six miles to class in Lucknow. Tonight I told his photograph the news. Twelve years and you never once cut a corner. He would say the same thing I do: we are so proud of you.

In 26 years I have hired exactly one associate who negotiated her own offer letter. The partnership vote was unanimous, which almost never happens. Welcome to the table, Priya.

From LSAT flashcards on our terrible futon to PARTNER. I always knew, even when you didn't. Dinner is on you now though, those are the rules. So proud of you, P.

You are the only attorney in this building who thanks the mailroom by name. The whole 14th floor is glowing today. (Also, the coffee machine story is NOT exaggerated.)
