Reply #70: As someone who works in a high power NYC corporate office, this is not exactly true.

Yea, what you say is basically true...that people work 80-100 hours a week. devote their lives to a job, get taxed hundred and hundreds of dollars on their income.

BUT, the people who are making these huge bonuses are NOT the drones doing the work. Please understand, they have underlings who (I was one of them) who would be told at 5:30 that they had to stay till 3 am to finish a project, so the "overseerer" can leave and then get credit for the project in the morning. I don't know a single "overseerer" that would stay in the office past maybe 7 or 8 PM the LATEST. Sure there are exceptions, but I can tell you that those 80-100 hour work weeks are not being had by the poeple who are getting 1 million dollar bouneses.

and ur sex theory is also BS. I have seen so much drunken debauchery, interoffice hookups, affiars....no one is lonley or desperate in this field.
