These guys got some gumption.

Interesting that they were fined for withholding customer rewards bonuses. I wish that could be used against casinos

Do casinos have to report to anyone as to fairness of various promotions? I assume casinos have to report all financial transactions, but letting a guest have a hotel room for free — that would go unreported I would think.

I’m trying to think what overall difference that should make for the rest of the customers. Haven’t really thought about it until now.

The discussion about large institutions like Bank of America raises important questions about accountability and trust. While it’s crucial to remain vigilant about financial practices, I think we all strive for reliability and transparency, whether in banking or other services.

I worked at BAC for a short period. I would never work there again based on it.

I would gladly work there as the CEO as he gets about $30 million a year.

Apply then.

My first day of training the trainer said something so incorrect I lost any respect I might ever gain from them. It didn’t get better.

One day they assigned us a new “mentor.” How bad was she? In a meeting with my team they asked my thoughts and I said in front of everyone:

“On the advice of council I decline to answer on the grounds I honestly believe my answer might tend to incriminate me.”

And nothing else!

I figure almost 13 years later someone in that room still remembers.

No, I feel like I will have more leverage when they call me.

I've never had a Bank America account but it seems like they have been hacked or had computer issues well above the average bank.

Supervisors there told me to delete the old files on my desktop (I save stuff in case needed, old habit) because "it will slow your computer down." Now, what they meant was they have to pay for HD storage and if everyone did what I did they have to buy more storage. I tried explaining the difference between RAM and HD but the supervisor she still insisted. I think I pushed back because when I said just a little that this was not the case she treated me like a child.

Did I mention how much I hated that place?
