Trading floor evacuated at RBS in Stamford. In all seriousness, how are supposed to lose the UK taxpayers money standing out in the street? Open to suggestions.
Update: All good in the hood.
They just let us back in, sprinklers went off in cafeteria. That was anti-climatic. Game on!
just keep doing what you’re doing.
Let me have your email address and I will get back to you on that.
HRH
are they burning the place down for the insurance $$???
Collecting the insurance money is the best option for recovery for the UK taxpayers. the UK and the city of stamford have an agreement to just let the place burn to the ground. After 45 minutes, the fire trucks stopped by the building, asked for directions, drove down the street, turned on their lights and then came back to fight the fire.
PS: the fire alarms only worked on the trading floor, nowhere else.
I still have a shitload of unsold CDO^10 bearer bonds, with a 7% coupon, priced at par, in the trunk of my car.
I suppose I could cut out of here and swing by the parking lot and give my pitch to the RBS traders. I’ll be driving the black Jaguar with the tinted windows and the custom license plate “Quant”.

Charlie here. Sorry ’bout callin’ all of yous bloggers losers and assholes before. I wuz just fuckin’ with yous.
I’m wonderin’ if some of you RBS guys might be interested in securitizing the expected earnings from my new book. Remember dem old Bowie bonds? I think it would be cool if yous could name some bonds after me.
You’d have no trouble pitchin’ em with my name recognition and my reputation for timely, honest, and hard hitting reporting. Da rating agencies all fuckin’ love me, and I’m sure dat they’d give me a AAA. I got contacts dare.
Lemme know whatcha think.
