I had the sneaking suspicion that many might be mentally and emotionally children though. I'm in my 30s now and I just chuckle at this concept of adulthood these days. That suspicion I had as a kid has proven to be the norm. Adults are usually just stupid fucking children whose bodies just got bigger and older. I for one applaud the pain the baby sitting regulators sometimes inflict on the stupid. Pain is often the only way to fucking get through to dumb asses.

I imagine it was a relatively small bank and if that is the case shouldn't people who are equity and debt holders suffer from lending to/owning such an incompetent institution?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8358039.post-50232519030540444132014-06-12T12:46:57.312-07:002014-06-12T12:46:57.312-07:00I just discovered you and your work courtesy of th...I just discovered you and your work courtesy of the Hinderaker-Ward experience.

I am asking “Why?”<br /><br />I saw similar behavior in the tech industry, where similarly incompetent managers would knowingly send untested and non-working product out the doors on a fairly regular basis. How could they NOT know that the equipment would come back while simultaneously turning our name into an obscenity in tech circles?<br /><br />Were the managers REALLY that stupid? Or was there some other motivation I’m not seeing?<br />Phil Galtnoreply@blogger.com
