Where are the women on Wall Street?

I love that on the same webpage as the Where are the Female Bankers? article is a poll that reads as follows:
Quote:
I've plucked my eyebrows, or gotten my brows plucked
Yes
No
Maybe once, and only because the gf insisted
So the anticipated poll audience seems to be men. Perhaps the lack of webpages dedicated to female bankers has something to do with the lack of female bankers?

So how do you know that they have no idea what they are doing?

That's why it is so frustrating. A substantive defense of a provision is something you can discuss rationally and figure out alternative language that works for both sides. But "it's our form" is just plain annoying.

How about, "he who has the gold makes the rules"?

That one is less frustrating when that one comes out after you at least have a substantive discussion and the banker says no.

What kind of "form" like an ISDA Master? that type of form or a boilerplate agreement.

Clue: No one knows what they (individually) are doing. Seniority just brings the ability to fake it better.
