CNBC has stormed the castle. One of the queen’s bitches writes:
Don’t know if anyone’s noticed but CNBC is broadcasting from the den of mediocrity AKA the RBS trading floor throughout the day. We were told to be on our best behavior and to dress better than we’re paid. Tune in and watch us put the L in PnL!
the question is, who is this a bigger low for rbs or cnbc?
‘We were told to be on our best behavior and to dress better than we’re paid.’
ouch
WILL AMANDA DRURY BE JOINING US???
-a bitch o’ the queen
“The den of mediocrity?” Thank God that isn’t us!
-Citi Quant
No porn today then?
does “be on your best behavior” mean not pulling a macquarie? or pulling a macquarie?
@4 don’t sell yourself short. With hard work and just a little luck, you guys may yet attain mediocrity.
I take “be on your best behavior” to mean “food eating contest, while your desk is in view of the camera.” just sayin.

haha did anyone see the the black guy in the white shirt jump up and make a show of picking up his phone (that presumably has no one on the other line)?
@9 I love how everyone behind Lancaster is pretending to be in a lively phone conversation.
RBS is the Citi of the UK – 68% owned by the UK Government, y’all should only strive for mediocrity, they do that everyday over at Citi….
If pulling my macquarie over and over again is wrong, I do not want to be right.
-Clammy McFlopSweat
@11 Agreed but I’d as a RBS employee I’d say RBS is worse than Citi.
Den of meddocrity, that’s generous.
-Bitchtern
As a Somali pirate and thief, I’d like to officially distance ourselves from any perceived association between their den of mediocrity and our den…completely separate dens, ok?

What the hell is this article all about? Anyone know ?
@15- I think your economy is stronger than the UK’s at this point. Congrats

so, in other words, have a mint and use some visine on your way back from bobby valentines?
@16 it’s about you being an idiot.
@15 I second that

UBS Stamford is the new killing it.
I think there’s gonna be some pain over this. You probably should have left the guy’s name on so they’d know who to hurt.
@22 wait, pain over what? cnbc being there? what are you talking about?
ugh why do I miss everything?!?!?!

Forget those RBS losers, Amanda Drury looks like an Austin Powers babe….yeah baby. Who wouldn’t want to put a shrimp in her barbie…
@26 DB has never mentioned Drury. Ever.
@24 nice
Thanks @19….Did your mother have any children who lived?
@28. I think that sentence only reinforced your stupidity. Well played, sir.
@9 – We disowned the black man in said white shirt pretending to be on the phone.

So what’s normal behavior then? The black guy pretending to work by talking into his dick instead of a phone?
‘…dress better than we’re paid.’
as a result the entire floor is dressed in a combination of crocs, jorts, and wife beater undershirts.
