Blackberries and me

I am an analyst at a new york i-bank, taking the subway to work and checking my blackberry.

I saw a chick also taking the train. She was nothing too special.

Until i saw her whip out her blackberry (then realizing she was probs an i banking analyst).

For some reason, she got hotter, more attractive, looked smarter and more sophisticated.

I asked her for her blackberry number and banged her brains out.

(just kidding)

But my bank is about to replace our blackberries with iphones after they pay out bonuses

idk what to do.....how do people know im a bad ass investment banker without a blackberry?

 

It's important to mention it as often as possible in conversation, especially if none of your possessions clearly indicate your status as a master of the universe. Upon making it clear that you are a god among men, refer to "The Firm" as much as possible to reinforce your greatness.

Thanks, let me know if you ever need an introduction in the industry.
