I’ve only been here since January so I don’t know what it was like before; the old timers make it seem like it’s just a lot more red tape. Supposedly they caught someone in my department doing some shady shit about 2 years ago after the tightening and fired him. He became an eBay entrepreneur and they ran a story in the Buffalo news recently about how he’s a millionaire now. But this is not the business to go into for someone looking to get away with anything. I mean, when you’re making \<100k and moving around a few hundred billion at a time, the desire is always going to be there. ---

One cool thing is my office window overlooks the baseball field. I am using the zoom on my camera phone to try to pick out hotties in the stands from 19 floors up. ---

SOX is no big deal, the only people making a fuss about it are the ones without a clue ( executive management ). Systems can always be modified when necessary, and policies can be written in the rare case that the system can’t be changed. No big whoop, just a lot of money wasted on consulting/auditing. I hate auditing. I need to look at HSBC again though. Plus the food court there is legit! ---
