Code of Ethics

As previously hinted in a recent post, I work very close to Wall Street. Not physically but metaphorically. I thoroughly enjoy my job. Currently I have 17 people that report directly to me and I am heading up all sorts of projects. The stock market is a wildly fascinating thing. It is always changing and never the same. Because of this I am usually apprised with what’s happening in our economy. Not in the nerdy sense. I don’t sit down at dinner and talk about the beige book report and state of the union. I don’t roll like that; maybe secretly, but never outwardly. My particular industry in the most heavily regulated industry in the milky-way galaxy. I know it’s funny but in the words of the Hotness, “I am as serious as a heart-attack.”

For this reason, I will never, EVER mention where I work. I may mention generalities but never specifics. Especially with those I closely associate with. I wish I could. I have outrageous stories from HR incidents, to background checks, to hiring and firing people. But alas, it will all remain secret. More importantly, it is actually against my company’s “Code of Ethics” to mention my work on a public/personal site like this. That being said, for those that know me and know where I work, please do not mention it; especially in the comments. I thank you in advance.

Ok, I will try to refrain from telling the world that you work at Macey's grocery store. Or wait did you get fired from that job?

technically I didn't get fired. But the man that threatened me can be seen at the 8th North Maceys. He is a gimp. This is literal. He walks with the gimpiest of all gimps. You can't miss him.
