I should introduce you to bigbird then.

So, when you say you work in finance, you mean that you earn money from a hakwon that pays you to teach. Right?

6 Hours eh?

Wow. You must be lucky. My first job in the industry had me at work at 630 am. My supervisor was there no later than 6am. Not a single person in the office arrived after 8, and those near 8 were gofers. I hated it. You get to sleep till 8, eh? So, you get ready and showered, eat breakfast and then manage a LA commute to work.

You have one of those finance jobs that starts at 10am. Hey, sure.

Just admit it dude. Camon.

"sell side". You just read that on a forum.

Those who actually do work on a real "sell side" have hours that are significantly worse than others. By the by, I actually was on the "sell side" and it sucked. And it sucked exactly because of the horrible hours. My office commitments were 630-730/8. And I was one of the lazy ones. So lazy, that I quit straight away and found myself normal working hours.

It is the buy-side that has the less rigid hours. Your quick google search should have taught you that. Unless by "its" you meant "the sell side work market hours" in which case your suggesting that you have graduated to the buy side. But your severe deficiencies in how debt functions in the USA would strongly suggest your a hakwon cowboy in Nowon.

Camon. The jig is up. Out with it.

So, just to be clear, you are saying that you work "sell side" with "non market hours"? Right. Gotcha.

I don't teach or live in Korea.

jad, ha ha ha, stop digging a hole.

No one in finance has those hours. no one. Especially in CA.

And let's say, for argument's sake, you do. Not a fan of being promoted I take it?

Why couldn't any of you have had the foresight to quote JAD?
