I’m leading a call with a bunch of BSD portfolio managers. Catch is though, 3 out of 5 of them were chicks (they sounded pretty hot too, but that can be deceiving).
I was sharing my screen with them and showing them how they can go about building a CSV file in Excel to upload a model into our platform to generate trades. I built a sample model with three securities, apple, google, amazon 30% each - this doesn’t matter, purely for demo purposes. And I saved it.
But, when I went to click on “browse” on our platform, the library that my computer went to was my non-work photos folder I have on my laptop. And the ONLY thing these chicks saw was a bunch of mirror ab shots that I take to post on my bodybuilding.com forum…
Was the most unprofessional thing that has ever happened. I had to act all natural like nothing happened, but these people definitely saw me flexing in front of a mirror.
No one else was on the call with me - I was leading it all by myself, so I’m not going to say anything, and I think I’ll be alright, because after all, I look friggen STACKED in these photos.
At a prior job, they put me in charge of social media since I was doing online sales and I was the youngest. I hadn’t used Facebook much but found out that if you like a bunch of pics from a booty shaking competiton, it will show up on the feeds of the people who friend or like your company’s page.
1st: How chizzeled did you look like? Maybe send the female PMs a quick personal photo album, say a prayer, and hope that you get an invite for a date #BossMove
2nd: Honestly, I wouldn’t worry about the abs shots. Think about it if the positions would have been reversed…if you had seen one of the GS guys (or girls) personal photos? So what, would it be a big deal? At least, if that kind of a mess up would happen to someone with whom I’d have a conf.call, I would give it a quick laugh inside my head and then forget about it (unless if the personal photos would have been of a hot female, then I’d probably cherish the memory for the rest of my life)
3rd: Last and probably the most important point. Why do you have personal photos on your work laptop? Rule #1 of using corporate phone or laptop: never ever, ever, do something that you wouldn’t mind your boss to see.
Op if they did not get a close look at your face, to know for sure it’s you, they will think you are gay/bi which is good cause they are a protected class I think, can’t discriminate
Why you have personal photos on work computer? Noobs. Could have been worse I guess. You could have been a furry or something. Anyway, assuming chiseled abs, best case is you get a date out of it, amiright? Especially if the remaining 2/5 PMs were Indian dudes.
I host probably close to 20 calls a week with money manager firms who need to learn how to use our platform. It wasn’t that one. And yeah, I feel you on your third point… but like, people actually do that?
That’s the rule I abide to. Even if I read WSJ, I go google chrome incognito mode (i know, i know, the IT guys can still see the websites I visit…I just want to avoid the address popping up in my history). Also, I never visit websites on company’s wifi that my boss wouldn’t approve. e.g. I never ever post anything on AF from work. Also, no personal photos, documents etc on corporate laptop/phone. it’s just safer that way.
my contacts in my outlook has a rolodex of every hoe’s number i got. there are pics on some of them as well. i brag to my co workers on the amount i have as well as the organization through the nomenclature of how they are arranged.
the real bsds dont actually know how to do anything. they have junior partners that know a lil bit. the further down you go, the more technical knowledge people seem to have. the people who are forced to learn are lower level peeps.
1 time this chick actaully inquired about the status of this dude i work with. like single? with kids? age? then she left her number. she told me she did it cuz he seemed like a nice guy! anyways i’ll find out if the shidduch worked out.
when i first started i used to be paranoid about goign to pornhub on my company phone. nowadays, im always surprised to find out that lots of sites are blocked if you access it through company wifi. thx god for 4g
lol im always down to hang. it is sad though as i am no longer single so i am less lit. but i am not married either so things can change.
i am meeting my gf’s extended family for christmas so it should be interesting. last week i did grind on a chick at a club. but i was doing it to help bitcoin and i wasnt really attracted to the girl. i its really funny though as i grinded, i really felt guilty even while drunk. when bitcoin was buying them drinks, i dipped to the bathroom. lol. actually told my gf and she was cool about it. she only gets pissed when i talk about real girls i meet or know and keep talking about how hot they are. actaully im not quite sure. i actually think shes just saying shes cool. anyways i shouldnt really be going to a club, its unfair to the girl, and to the other dudes who aint getting shit.
I attest to that.I worked with a hot sounding chick (conf call, chat, outlook) for weeks before I met her face to face. Before I met her, my expectations were in the high 8s, but the reality was something entirely different. So sad.
There’s this gal who works at some firm on the east coast somewhere. She routinely calls me for all her requests. Her an I established great rapport and it’s definitely a “I love you” type feel. But, I refuse to look her up on LinkedIn because I don’t want this feeling to die - if you know what I’m saying.
whenever i talk to females over the phone, my co workers alwyas thinks im hitting on them. it always surprises me, i think i holler so much, that it became second nature. also if ur a chick im looking you up. i just like rating and ranking chicks. im like a savant.
