What a great thread!

I'm very new here, but visit every day, read a lot, and have learned a ton. Thanks so much to everyone who contributes and shares their knowledge about banking.

I only just discovered the Water Cooler and the Couch in the past few days... great way for me to take a short break a couple times a day - thanks! The only problem is I have to stifle my laughter here at my desk (some of you all are quite hilarious!) or co-workers will know I'm up to something!

Plus, someone up there ^^^^ said BOL is a great place to meet chicks... so I assume it's a great place to meet the man of my (compliance) dreams, too, right? LOL

If you like Burger King and the guy drumming his fingers(the pic is a cutie)etc... then you have come to the right place.

Bankersonline rocks? I thought they were putting out a CD. If they did, what songs would be on it?

It's Money that Matters - Randy Newman

You forgot some:

It's All About the Benjamins - Diddy feat. Foo Fighters version

Hmmm... Burger King, huh? There must be a story there! Maybe I'll run across it as I read old threads!

lol I do like the pic of the guy drumming his fingers, and The Incredible Comply Guy and I are in the same geographic area and share the same birthday (along with Elvis Presley and David Bowie), I just discovered from looking at his profile! Too funny!

I have come to rely on BOL for information, education, and friends. There are many of you out there who I consider my friend even though we don't know each other's true names or locations. Weird, huh?




Ditto that sentiment. Thanks BOL and the people involved for everything.

BOL has helped out when I have had work questions - great resource!
Couch has helped out with a couple of issues as well.
But most enjoy the watercooler.

Dip, I agree, you'll be a nerd if you get your screen name embroidered on your BOL shirt, but you'll be cool again when you get a BOL tattoo with your screen name! You could go see Chris Garver at Miami Ink to get it. Maybe you'd even end up on the show.

Don't do it - not to be downer on this "yeah BOL" thread (which is deserved), but when I got a sweatshirt a couple years ago for being the winner of the month, it is not a comfortable piece of clothing. Sorry BOL, but I am a marketer, and the company apparel has got to be comfy for it to be worn.

i just love getting new sweatshirts, expecially at the beginning of fall (ok, so like, november here in southern cali). i love hwo the fleece inside is still so soft and warm. and then you wash it a few times and it gets all scratchy cuz the fleece has pilled up. sad to hear the BOL sweatshirt is no good. I guess i'll have to go to miami now to get inked...."Dip" right on my hip

Thanks Mary Beth, Michele, John, and Andy (and anyone else whom I forgot) for making BOL one-stop shopping for compliance information, education, forms, research, dialogue with other professionals, support and advice, letting-down-the-hair fun, and passionate debates. A veritable financial cyberspace Wal Mart!

As the man to the left sang, "I couldn't have made it without you. Here's to the [BOL] band!"

There are many behind the scenes people you don't see or hear from, but they do see these threads and we all appreciate these comments.

And remember, some of us like BOL so much, we joined the company.

I have both the black and the red sweatshirts. I really like them and am waiting for a new color-like purple.

Further South than I wanna be.
I really want to get the Whack a lender (ok mole) shirt and wear it on casual day.

Thanks everybody for all you do. I am always talking about things I "hear" on BOL. People think I have imaginary friends.

How are you doing MT? I see that new Aflac commercial on TV (the guy falling off the ladder) and I think of you and hope you are getting better.

Oh - I haven't seen THAT commercial yet! Oh my!

Well, I don't want to highjack this thread - but I'm doing fairly well - I am being scheduled for surgery to have the hardware removed from both legs. I'll be down for 6-8 weeks and then I should be able to be back out there job-searching again! (Yep - This has been an ordeal!)(Thanks for asking.) I try to visit BOL often enough to keep informed!
