big shot ny guy.. again (warning - long)

remember that guy who came in a while ago and bragged about how he worked on wall street? then when i asked what he did, he said ' oh i work with stocks and bonds and stuff like that." then i asked, 'oh , do you trade?" he said, "nah, i help build the company, infrastructure, hire people." HAHAHAHAHA. you work on wall street as a recruiter, darling, yes, it's such an IMPORTANT job. (relatively, of course.)

So anyway , he comes in again today and we sort of reintroduce ourselves again because we both sorta forgot each other. so i said, 'oh yea, you're the guy that travels between ny and philly. so how's your work going in ny?" and he said "oh you know, ny is ny, pretty cool (in a pretty condescending tone, as if i had no idea what ny was like)." later another regular comes in and asks me about the job offer i took, which is with a boutique consulting firm in ny after graduation. then after that the guy starts smack talking consulting, about how it doesn't pay well, and he could get me a job anywhere i want to in ny. then i get into a discussion about how yes, consulting in GENERAL is pretty sucky, and in general they don't pay well, but my firm happens to be paying me just as much as wall streeters AND other stuff. Then he continues being an ass and saying, 'well just tell me where you want to work and i'll get you a job anywhere you like.' i said, no i chose this company for a reason...blah blah.

So ANYWAY later he looks at me and he says, ' you know, you look like a goldman sachs girl (as if he was the EXPERT)." i said, 'well i DID coincidentally work for them one summer, but what exactly does a goldman sachs girl represent?" and he said,' oh you know, just cute, stuff like that." and i said, "well that depends on the department" while REALLY i was thinking of the big arrogant assholes at GS who have sticks up their asses and think they're better than the rest of the world...coincidentally like this guy! WOW. THIS is why i don't want to work in a bulge bracket firm and deal with fucking bullshit assholes who think they're god's gift to earth. AHH! AHH ! AHH!!

ok, end /rant
