Your story sounds very similar to my time at BOA. These banks wrote the book together. I'm so glad to be out of that industry.

The thing is that yeah, no one is "making" you do anything but what most people don't understand is the pressure being leveled on low-level bank employees to make numbers. Most of the people I know who are still working in the business are run ragged. I certainly was.

Add to this all of the personal obligations like paying rent, mortgage, caring for your kids that keeps a person trapped in this sort of environment. It isn't easy to walk away from the line of work that you know to try something new. I don't really expect someone who hasn't been there to really understand that.

Having been a latch-key kid, I grew up with your voice work. You will always be the voice of Duke, all others are imposters.

Thank you Senator Wyden for all of your great work. You have always had my vote because you always represent us well.
