Or tips to fake confidence when getting yelled at? I have a partner that nothing I do is right.
She called and yelled at me yesterday and I had to hang up the phone on her because I was going to start crying.
I’m just nervous how to act in person now.
He undermines everything I do/say and as a new lawyer I don’t have a lot of confidence on what to say back to her .
What are some good responses that are still professional to say to an angry partner ?
I don’t have experience getting yelled at by people in law school. This is my first job since graduation.
Also is it normal to get yelled at? If so, then I may not switch to another firm. I will just quit practice for good.

It's not normal. You are just unlucky to have a toxic boss. Change firms and this time do your due diligence on how the firm culture/your boss is like before joining.
(And don't take the responses on this forum as representative because usually only unhappy people will come onto this forum to vent. People who are happy with their bosses won't bother to post about it.)
