ibanking analyst more like a waiter?

i've been told if your an analyst your more like a waitress and not like ari gold... 1) bonus in the form of tips, 2) your the "middle man" between the cookers and customers, and you work for unreasonable restaurant owners who tells you to work late night weekend shifts last minute.
