That is fucking awesome.

If anyone called me chief, I would go Dick Fuld on their ass and knock them the fuck out, regardless of who they are. So, maybe I should be the 26th person to avoid on Wall Street.

Lol, I always laugh on the inside when I heard someone more senior call an SA chief and saw them get excited. Meanwhile i'm thinking, Dude he doesn't even know your name.

Avoid the guy who won't share his Adderall: It just speaks to his character.

Love the whole list. Classic.

24 is great. Never get into a fight with Bess Levin. So very very true... not that I would know.

  1. Avoid the chick in IB Ops with the insanely large breasts. After you bang her, she'll hound you about how can she get over to a more front office role.
