If budget allows, the car that replaces my SX4 will probably be a mini countryman.

damn mike, you're on a watch buying tear.

I didn't take it, but it's from this year's yukon quest sled dog race from canada to fairbanks, ak. I REALLY miss alaska in the winter.

My understanding is a lot of banks make almost everyone AVP. SMBC is a japanese bank, and they're also fairly well known for not having the best pay scale. But, 20-30% bonus and 4 weeks vacation. I'd probably negotiate for more vacation, too.

Ok, turns out it's not BofA, it's SMBC. We'll see how it goes.

Turns out it's BofA in Jersey City. They're a little low on salary, but with a decent bonus. I went ahead and had them submit me, but we'll see. A pay cut to move to Jersey City to work for BofA isn't the most thrilling thing ever
