Fuck Sakes

Remember when you were an SA and given an impossible task. It was basically to create a power point slide that couldn't be done. Whether it was lack of public financial information or plotting over 1000 variables onto one slide. Well I felt like shit spending an entire day only to not complete one slide.

Now working FT in M&A with a good group, I'm asked to do the same shit. Slowly losing grasp on Top Bucket and might appear stupid to senior bankers now.
