How to handle this situation?

I recently met with an MD at a NYC BB Power & Utilities group (think Barclays, MS, JPM).

I had a networking trip scheduled to NYC with over 10 junior and senior bankers from P&U groups across the street over the course of 2 days. Besides this MD and one analyst at his bank, they all had to cancel on me last minute. I met with this MD at Gregory's coffee. This place was packed and as with the rest of that horrible city, people were rushing around not paying any attention to their actions.

I was extremely frustrated with the trip thusfar, and feeling pretty clausterphobic. In some sort of freak happenstance the MD spilled his entire cup of coffee on me. I cussed him out.

It was pretty bad I directed multiple F bombs at both him and NYC, and called him 2 separate derogatory terms for homosexuals, insulted his intelligence multiple times, and made fun of his baldness. I also screamed at him that my suit cost $2,000. I think this was the part that really hurt me the most. I really wished I had told him it was more expensive.

He apologized and I settled down, then I apologized profusely. He told me about his company's deal-flow and culture, and a little bit about how he got to where he was. Then he gave me a $20 for dry cleaning.

I thanked him for his time and sent him a follow up email, to which he didn't respond.

What do you guys think my chances are / What can I do to get back in the process at this bank.

Thanks for your help.

Edit: This is was a bad joke solely for entertainment purposes.

It says a lot if you can't keep your cool in a situation like that. Seems unlikely you'll be able to handle getting nits from a VP at 1am on a pitchbooks.

 

If this is even remotely real then you have no shot whatsoever. Learn to respect first. Don't you get all touchy about your suit, some people consider a $2000 suit cheap as fuck.
