I used to work at MBNA. The glory days. When high interest rate credit cards where just making their nut. My first day of orientation, had a general in it. Everyone went to “Orientation”. Even special generals. It was kind of of cool to me back then to see that the appeared to treat everyone the same. I was very young and ignorant of the banking industry at this point in my life. Why hire a 4 Star Retiring general into your credit card company?
Well, I don’t ask questions like that anymore when I see generals being hired by Banking companies that I believe are chartered in our fine state.
As the Church Lady would say, “Well, isn’t that special”
“will provide strategic advice and global insights to Chairman and CEO Jamie Dimon, the Board of Directors and members of the Operating Committee on a broad range of issues, including international planning and country risk analysis, technology, operations and the rapidly evolving issues of physical and cyber security, the firm said in a news release.”
The only thing that would make this hiring sweeter to me is if he got to wear his uniform around the office and the pleebs had to salute him while on duty, err I mean at work.
“Ray has dedicated his life to serving our country, rising to the top of the Army with proven leadership that delivers results,” Dimon said. “His experience, vision and impressive track record of success when confronting overwhelming challenges will provide significant value to our leadership team, the firm and our clients across a wide range of issues.”
Excuse me while I vomit my Kellog’s Special K with Extra Strawberries. Disgusting, sick, and everything that is wrong with our version of Capitalism. A real man of integrity you are sir. It’s good to see you cashed in General Odorous. I salute you.
It’s almost like people forget that Chase wrongfully foreclosed and evicted military families only 5 years ago.
