Judge Stories

Whenever Judge Reinhardt\u27s clerks are asked about the clerkship, they tell Judge stories. There are an infinite number of wry stories about how hard he worked and how hard he worked us. Inevitably, the clerks try to best each other with increasingly over-the-top tales about the Judge\u27s legendary eating habits or his shockingly funny bluntness. An outsider might think we tell Judge stories simply because they are entertaining, or perhaps because they are veiled complaints in a culture in which it\u27s considered bad form to speak ill of your clerkship
