So I am a first year intern at a major canadian bank. My MD secretly asked me if I can get some
'white powder' for a work party, since its external based. I was wondering if I should do it or not. I think it could get me credibility with these guys, and they'd respect me. Let me know your opinions.

2/10 did not laugh
lol @ "white powder"
Someone who would ask the internet this question doesn't strike me as the type of person an MD would feel comfortable asking for coke.
Do what you're told you stuck up asshole. Know your role jabroni.
Quoting because this needs to stay here lol
This is the worst troll post I have seen.
wait do canadians have drugs or powers at all for that matter
I am assuming this is a troll, but if this actually is serious just straight up tell him (whether you do or don't) that you unfortunately do not do "white powder" and do not know anyway to get some sorry.
You must have a strict moral compass to succeed in this profession. Prove that you do.
Is this certain?
lol, what you shouldn't do, for sure, is post about it on the internet.
don't do anything stupid. do what feels right.
My dad's friend who was an institutional sales guy in the 80's told me some unbelievable stories about this subject. I think you are in the wrong decade though.
Well yeah, that was the 80's on Wall Street.
And if you think coke still isn't around you live under a rock
1/10 author.
Even if it has changed I guarantee you there are still kilos of white powder flooding all the way down from NYC or London skyscrapers. I saw here an interesting article describing quite accurately how bankers kids and first year analysts spend their nights at Hong Kong (http://www.danwei.org/crime/coked_up_bankers_of_hong_kong.php) . Not sure if relevant anyway.
I'm not sure it is very popular in the banking world nowadays. On the other hand be sure that showbiz people haven't changed their habits.
Are you saying this still doesn't exist...? It's just not as out in the open as it once was, but just as prevelant.
@Bobb
Heyo you're a drug mule for the ritalin cartel? Not so smart buddy boy
I'm not talking about brokers openly doing coke... I'm talking about something that would probably get me banned for going into the details of. A well known firm doing a lot more than turning a blind eye to cocaine.
troll.
My opinion is that you probably choose bulbasaur as a starter pokemon.
Let me know your opinion.
