        Do people really have that job title? I couldn't read beyond that.

            FFS, what kind of tulip business are they if they can't manage a few bad quarters without firing people? FFS, business is meant to save up money in good quarters and deal with bad ones - those guys seem to bleed shareholders and business dry to payout max bonuses without regard for business itself.

            It just shows that those banks are not competent enough to run their own business in the first place (unless it's ever growing market), so why should anybody believe their "analysts" talking about other peoples businesses?

                She can analyse my ubers any time she likes. She is enough to turn a man straight (in a MILFy sort of way).
                How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

                  I assume she would lubricate them first.

                    That looks like some half arsed thing that Niall would dream up.

                    I wonder what he's doing these days...
