That's tight you're back to being a permie so hand to hand back your waiterose card

Change it to "a Walter Mitty-esque poster of over inflated self worth" and I'll accept it

This is why I love being a disguised permie, Banking sector crashing? Move to public sector. Public Sector slashed? Move to Tech companies etc etc. We are like the slag who goes for the guy doing the best and will dump them as soon as they look like becoming a loser.

FTFY for accuracy.

It's not a good definition is it.

"Coined in 1867. Compound of blood and bath, the latter used to refer in the metaphorical sense to a deluge of a thing."

How about Dickhead.

"Coined in 2015 by Marillionfan a Poster of great regard on CUK. Compound of Dick and head, used to refer to a poster called SimonMac offering no value whatsoever."

What's the origin of the word bloodbath?

Agamemnon?

I must admit I thought this saga was over and things in finance were looking better, well apart from the Lloyds yet another 10% cut. Looks like RBS is exiting investment banking completely.


RBS to slash 14,000 investment banking jobs: FT 03.03.2015 | Nachricht | finanzen.net

These job losses are offset by 14,000 Romanians arriving everyday boosting the UK economy....

Yes Mr Unix.
That's exactly what I am doing.
I have just come out of the public sector after 4 years and now playing about the the cool newish stuff.

Follow the budget

Bristol is surprisingly for Linux techy roles however having said that, my next role is in Southampton.

UBS is downsizing and going back to wealth management, Deutsche Bank mired in litigation. Doesn't look good.

Not is is not good for the industry, country and Europe as a whole.
It might be the in thing at the moment to bash to banks but it is going a bit too far really.
