Salient Advice for IBD SA

I am an incoming SA with a MM IBD( think PJ, Baird, jefferies) and am a little nervous for the start of the summer. Does anyone have any salient advice? My modeling is pretty solid, as a result of friends that work in IB at BB that shared materials with me, but I am still nervous given I have never worked a job where I will be sitting in an office for 12-15 hours a day. Thanks again!
