Overheard on the Goldman Sachs elevator

This blog made me think of Jbear's old stories about life in the corporate world. I can't wait until she has more to share! Oh, and it made me realize how bad people are.

An anonymous career banker inside Goldman Sachs opened a twitter account (@GSElevator) with the intention of revealing the hilarious banter that takes place in the privacy of the GS elevators. Since then, the account has evolved to include things overheard on trading floors, bullpens, lobbies and bars. Some of the conversations involve more than one person, and the participants are distinguishable by their number (#1, #2, #3).

Some examples:


#1: Groupon… Food stamps for the middle class.

#1: Blacking out is just your brain clearing its browser history.

#1: Age is just a number. The more important number is how hot she is out of 10.

#1: Almost time for children to learn a valuable life lesson. Santa loves rich kids more.
