    Lloyd's of London staff to behave

    I spent over 6 years working on the market ... seems it's changed a lot since my day. We certainly lived by the "work hard, play even harder" motto

            I was an IPSE Consultative Council Member, until the BoD abolished it. I am not an IPSE Member, since they have no longer have any relevance to me, as an IT Contractor. Read my lips...I recommend QDOS for ALL your Insurance requirements (Contact me for a referral code).

                Fascinating history. Started out as a coffee shop and now London's full of them.

                  the "3 year accounting" is very interesting too. Not aware of any other industry with anything like it.

                    Investment Banking has its own set of complexities - netting sets, collateral waitings, mark to market movements, etc - but it seems that they also have many similarities too.
