    bess do you think maybe you can name the links for the posts without using the word “fucking” as most of us actually work at companies where things like that get flagged? i know its outside of your realm of thinking and you think swear words are funny but maybe just some consideration for people that dont “blog” for a living.
    thanks

    employed- you obviously don’t read her stuff that closely.

    Market volatility is moving up and down like a whore’s dress at the bordello’s “rush” hour.

    To all Fuckatellis:
    Due to market fuckability the cock and tail hour will be a quicky. So don’t fuck around. Be here at 7 pm and fuck off at 7:30 pm.

    Dammit….I knew they’d be out partying so I planned my big volatility busting mega-trades to coincide with their party ….I would have made millions on that play…but someone must have leaked the scheme! I’ll bet it was one of those fucking quants we hired. They’ve all been real bitter since September. Geek bastards.

    If I was going to this I would sneak some cases of MHL in for the “7.30pm after party”

    If they were simply concerned about volatility shouldnt they say the party was 7pm-”whenever” (ie, a volatile, not fixed time)?
    Obviously i’m assuming they are short vol and would want to act on a market move, not that their profitability has been shot and they cant afford an hour.

    Employed,
    Just because you’re recieving a paycheck doesn’t mean you have crap to do. Plent of folks on Wall Street are still emplyed in the basic definition of the term, but are, however, not doing Jack.

  15. Posted by notmissingit | December 12, 2007 at 12:30 PM

    the point was to request that bess not use the word “fucking” in the url address as at most companies visiting a website with the word “fucking” in it might get you in trouble

  16. Posted by jag | December 12, 2007 at 1:05 PM

    I work on Wall Street, and boy am I glad that my employer doesn’t give a fuck about the fucking websites I visit in my spare time, preferring instead to focus on quality of work and the fucking bottom line. Fuckity fuck fuck.

    Fuck fuck fuckitty fuck fuck fucktard fuckface fucker fuckee fuckme fuckaleek fucklicious fucktastic fucksamore

    not to mention that they handed out drink tickets, required attendance of all or had to write a memo why you couldnt attend, didnt allow guest and had assigned seating..
    why would anyone work at such a sweat shop?

    @ mrpink
    you sound a lot like my mother

    Employed, crawl out from under your mama’s huge flapping meat curtains and buy yourself a pair of balls for Kwanza. For fuck sake, if you are so concerned about getting fired from your admin job, where your primary responsibility is felating your mid level manager boss, then don’t read DB.
    Otherwise, shut the 2nd biggest gaping orifice on your body (since you are dumb, I will tell you: the biggest is the one leading to your shitpipe into which one could easily place a grapefruit (sans lube)) and go back to gorking your bosses hog.

    gorking? holy shit.
