So I accepted an offer at a bb bank for 2010. Ever since then I have followed the news to see what deals my bank has been working on. Whenever a sizable deal comes along and my bank isnt a part of it, especally if the deal is in one of the bank's "top groups", I get extremely frustrated and stressed out. It basically ruins my day.
I am just wondering, does anyone else experience this or am I just crazy?

Which bank?
I'm just waiting for some schmuck to come along and say "oh, he's gay, he belongs to X group at Y bank".
Is this a joke? Did you throw a shit fit when your college moved down in the US News rankings too?
Not crazy - just passionate. Same as me.
don't stress. they're just waiting for you big shot, to come and make it rain. Summer 2010 marks the beginning of a new chapter for your firm.
Yes, you are being crazy.
get help
I'd like to reiterate that I believe that me being a homosexual, which changes this situation entirely, is not being considered sufficiently.
I'm sure you can afford a shrink once you start working.
My head has just been done in.
Please tell me this is a joke.
i feel the same way, i get so angry sometimes... u don't even know.
You mean when Deloitte losses out on some flashy SAP implementation contract?
Don't worry, Deloitte is still #5 on Vault rankings!
I am sorry OP you work at Griedly&Co. I heard they recently working on an M&A deal on a sale of a liquor store in Bronx.
12345, don't fret. There's plenty of time to stress out once you begin in July.
Credit Suisse is a shtty bank, im sorry 12345..
BB, relatively prestigious on this board, no dealflow = Credit Suisse. Heard they didn't crack top 10 in m&a last year? Hope you don't commit suicide b/c of that 12345.
I bet now some douchebag will post ytd 2010 m&a rankigns lol
1Q 2010 didn't come out yet but I'll oblige with 4Q 2009. Your post seems angry but you were right on one thing.
United States M&A
You're fcked in the head kid - your analyst class will hate you for being an overachieving douche, you'll burn out after 1-2 years and be relegated to some PWM firm in Nebraska
This is why we specifically don't hire nutjobs like you unless we're gonna grind you for all you're got and throw you out like last weekend's trash
