Once again Brian you demonstrate your prowess at tabloid style journalism by jumping to factual conclusions without any real fact.
The trip is for those selected AND their partners. So that actualy makes it $6590 per head. Quite reasonable actualy.
You say I bet they (meaning non banks) dont spend that kind of OBSCENE money. What rubbish. Have you ever been to some of these corporate junkets ? I have ben to plnty. Last one I was at in software industry a mercedes SL500 was awarded to top salesman. last year XMAS, KMART took its management team to top hotel in melbourne for a night. paid for whole family including kids in 2 rooms and paid for baby sitter to watch kids in room while parent then ate at fancy restuarant and had a private show from cast of a play currently running. Cost well over 20k per family. A corporate box ticket to the Grandprix Per person costs over $7000 per head. Companies take 1000s of execs to these over the course of the Melbourne Grandpix...Clipsal takes many of its top customer to Bathurst and Indy car every year and puts them up in hotel suites with catered food wine and serving girls for the entire event.. I could go on with more actual facts but you dont seem to like these.
As for the 1000's of staff read my earlier post for some fact behind this as well.
As for my Job being solid. I was told in November last year my role did not exists along with 40 or so of my collegues. I had to go through a riguours 2 month process to reapply for a smaller number of bigger roles. I was successfull. Some of my collegues and friends not. I am smart enough however and practical enough to realise this downsize happened for a good commercial reason. It did not make good commercial sense to have more roles than needed at that level. Had I not been successfull I would have moved on and just found anoher job..not blamed the bank for all my woes....
