$6Billion means time for a merge... or some major cutbacks. No more company-supplied marijuana!

Are you actually high enough up in the food chain to mean he will remember you personally?

If yes, start looking for a job, shouldn't be too hard. You're high up in the banking industry.

If no, don't sweat it, you are just another pleb he decided to call a ****-on. And it didn't mean as much as you're making out.

By the way, your bank ------- sucks and has ruined various 1st world economies.

You better not give them any reason though, unless they decide to "cut costs" and get rid of you.

Yeah so is texas. I would be worried. Start looking for dirt on him to help keep your job. But if your just some low level **** nuts, go ahead and try for another job at a different bank and save some hassle.

Hell no, I'm exactly that.. A ****-on. I didn't mean to seem offended by his comment. He actually meant that in a semi-positive way. . Wachovia hasn't ruined it... blame it on... NVM

well if he was just joking around then that changes everything. i wouldnt be worried, but you still might want to look for another job if wachovia is just getting worse and worse.

Like someone else said, you better start kissing some *** or look for somewhere else. Just depends on how big of an ------- he is.

The only thing slow about me is my CRX.

Alabama is a Right-To-Work state, and we can sue for wrongful termination. It's somewhat useless, because it's easy for the employer to come up with "reasons" you were fired. It IS our law though, and you can be taken to court for firing someone just because you don't like them.
