Here's a question for you Rudey - I've heard that in professions such as investment banking, that the "work hard, play hard" mentality is almost forced on you. I had a friend of a friend that was basically told that you weren't part of the team if you don't go to happy hour after work with the big bosses and get hammered. He said he didn't mind it occasionally or on the weekends and the like, but they felt pressure to go out and be part of the "coporate culture." Like if you don't follow the crowd and fit in then you won't go very far. True?
