  1. haha dona. No, I can’t take any confidential materials with me, and I take that pretty seriously. If I show up at the next place with a bunch of stuff I shouldn’t have taken then they won’t trust me. And in any event 95% of what I bring to the table is in my brain. If it’s on paper it’s something that dealt with yesterday’s deal. I am being hired to do tomorrow’s deal.

    And DIBS, the idea of taking a “client list” with me is actually pretty silly at this firm. The place I am leaving basically services the largest wall street institutions. The client list is meaningless.

  2. “Biff, how was Mrs. C able to land a job after an 8 year hiatus?”

    It was VERY lucky, Jessi. She had reached out to many firms trying to get something and had no responses at all. I knew she just needed to score an interview as her qualifications are excellent and she presents herself very well. She got into a seminar sponsored by FFF for people looking to return to the workforce. They have a great program for that. That was the big break from our friend. There were hundreds of people there vying for a small number of positions and I guess she wowed them. I’m very proud of her for that.
