am i crazy?

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?

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.

------------ I'm making it up as I go along.

You mean when Deloitte losses out on some flashy SAP implementation contract?

Don't worry, Deloitte is still #5 on Vault rankings!

 

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
