so Bear Stearns had a company gym...

" Twelve hours after agreeing to sell Bear Stearns Cos. for $2 a share, Alan Schwartz [pictured above left] wearily made his way to the company gym for a much-needed workout. It was 6:45 a.m., March 17, and Bear Stearns’s chief executive had slept little . . . When Mr. Schwartz, already dressed in his business suit, trudged into the locker room, Alan Mintz, still in his sweaty gym clothes, made a beeline for the boss."

a) was it in the building?

b) does that mean that JPM now has a company gym?

"I have a head for business and a bod for sin. Is there anything wrong with that?"
 

Thats tight! I got hired for bear, and then hired for JPM..I was kinda pissed about not having a gym. Real tight, they have 4/5/6 line access in their downstairs also.
