Thread regarding Wells Fargo & Co. layoffs

Just finished watching an older movie, Under Siege, on Netflix. A line reminded me of working for Wells Fargo.

Steven Seagal, an ex-Navy SEAL, is trying to stop a group of mercenaries, led by Tommy Lee Jones, who have seized a US Navy battleship. This movie is the good guys fighting the bad guys.

Near the end of the movie, Steven Seagal, the good guy, recognizes Tommy Lee Jones, the bad guy, as his former superior officer from prior operations.

Steven Seagal says “All your ridiculous, pitiful antics won't change a thing. You and I, we're puppets in the same sick play. We serve the same master and he's an ungrateful lunatic. There's nothing we can do about it. You and I are the same.”

Tommy Lee Jones says “Oh, no. No. No. No. There's a difference, my man. You have faith. I don't!”

It reminded me of the battles and differences of opinion out here. Some of us have faith in the ungrateful lunatics we work for and some don’t. But we all are, for the most part, in the same position: fighting for our paycheck, a little respect, and the ability to provide security to our families.

Steven Seagal can't act and is a Putin puppet.

But it was his only marginally good movie.

Not sure i would use lines from Steven Seagal, that guy is a freak show. I think people really care about Wells Fargo. Its been here since the 1800's, people have worked here for 30+ years. It has a fundamental link with America. Right now things feel a bit on the edge of order and chaos, but this place will come out ten times stronger than the other banks. Places like JPM and BOA have teams as soft as mush, this place is lord of the flies savage.
