Layoffs Watch '08: UBS West

Picture 237.png
Yes, Los Angeles bank branches are more or less lost tribes in the Amazon, so totally unexposed to real civilization and insulated from the trubs of the modern world in which we live that one must be careful when flying low over them, as they are prone to throwing spears at passing planes. Nonetheless, they are still people, and we should feel their collective pain. Apparently all but one second year analysts in UBS's LA office have been shown the door.

In more uplifting news, Citi Field is safe, according to Mr. Met.

Are we sure that's not Vikram hiding underneath that Mr. Met costume sneaking out the back of the building in disguise?

It so reminds me of the movie, "Dave"

Jim Tressel caused the market to crash. That's why nobody should like Jim Tressel or any endeavor he supports
