Does This Prove or Disprove That Morgan Stanley CEO John Mack Is Dearly Departed DealBreaker Commenter "BSD"?

Morgan Stanley recently--today-- informed its employees that it is no longer acceptable to “use firm computers to comment on blogs.” The first Morgan Stanley employee ballsy enough to post a comment on this post (we'll check the IP address to confirm it’s not some punk JPM banker) wins something pre-tay, pre-tay, pre-tay good (okay fine--it's drinks with Keith Hahn, on Carney, who owes him. Because he spotted him for lunch one time a few months back. Why, what were you thinking?).

Typical Morgan. Finding every possible way to suck the f-ing life out of you.

Sounds like Mack is keeping up with Purcell when it comes to creating an enjoyable work atmosphere. I really enjoyed my time there.......

Keith? Seriously, Keith?!

You know we all have a hard-on for Bess and her filthy, filthy mouth.

Too bad ML won't comment on the appropriateness of losing big money.
Damn sure going to control that internet use, though.

The toll of big bank losses from the credit squeeze topped $18bn on Friday after Merrill Lynch and Washington Mutual revealed heavy damage inflicted by financial market turmoil.

Merrill Lynch said it would take a $5bn writedown and record a third-quarter loss, while WaMu warned that profits for the period would plunge 75 per cent."

A policy like this might have saved a lot of embarrassment for a certain fantastic CEO who I am most definitely, maybe, possibly not. (Did I mention that I think he's cute?)

BTW, isn't Whole Foods the best publicly traded company on the face of the earth?
